[Bug 214538] Re: Macromedia Flash Plugin for Mozilla does not install correctly

Hi John,
I hope you see the answer this way when I answer your mail:

Version of apturl is 0.2.0 ubuntu1 at present

Version of ubufox is 0.5~rc1-0ubuntu1

Firefox is 3.0b5 as reported
Firefox indicates that the Shockwave Flash version is 9.0 rl24

I found that I have libflashplayer.so installed in 2 directories:
usr/lib/flashplugin-nonfree
usr/lib/firefox-addons/plugins

At that point of time "Add/remove programs" reported that I had the flash
plugin installed.
Then I had "Add/remove programs" remove the program.
Then the program in the first directory disappeared - but flash movies like
"The Daily Show" continued to work.

Hope this helps!  Otherwise I will try to-morrow to see if the new build
still has the error.
