At the moment I tried to install flashplugin-nonfree I had installed
only Pan news reader to my system. Otherwise it was just a fresh Breezy
installation with updates. At the time I had only universe and
multiverse enabled, no other extra repositories. So I suppose I
shouldn't have had anything depending on older ruby packages. Don't know
how to check this though.

OK, but this is a little above my level of expertice :-o

Gsfonts-x11 is already installed in my system and it seems that
flashplayer-nonfree depends on it.
Thanks :-)
