If you haven't done this recently, you're in for a surprise.  The
package that used to install Adobe flash properly doesn't work due to
Adobe changes which beyond the control of Ubuntu.  It is very messy.

And remember, launchpad is generally your best source for
authoritative information.  It is worth searching, and links to bugs
on launchpad are worth posting for many of the conversations we have.
Please report bugs via launchpad, don't just talk about them in mail
lists and forums.  There is no way for developers to follow all the
conversations that happen outside launchpad.
