Title:
Flashplugin-installer fails to download flash plugin when behind
firewall
Status in “flashplugin-nonfree” package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
When installing flashplugin from inside a corporate firewall, the
flashplugin-installer scripts do not honor the system wide proxy
settings, and in fact do not even get the settings from the
environment.
I can download the file manually with curl, wget, and firefox without
problem, both as a user and as sudo.
