Title: [precise] critical: flash stopped working after last update Status in “chromium-browser” package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: Ubuntu released new version of chromium-browser (36.0.1985.125-0ubuntu1.12.04.0~pkg897) for LTS 12.04 precise relase. After updating chromium-browser from previous version (34.0.1847.116-0ubuntu~1.12.04.0~pkg884) flash plugin stopped working. Flash plugin is properly installed but it chromium does not see it and show message that is not installed. Firefox has no problem and can load flash object. I suspect that this is because of dropping NPAPI support in chrome 36. But ubuntu does not have pepper flash in repositories so it is not possible to use flash on 12.04 anymore. So this is critical problem because one month ago everything worked fine and new *broken* version of chromium-browser is in precise- security/universe archive. I suggest to revert chromium back to *working* version or do something else -- because new *security* update totally broke flash support on 12.04 LTS release. Once again 12.04 is LTS release where is expected that updates marked as security will *not* break existing application support -- this is not *experimental* update.
