 Could you evaluate the flashplugin-nonfree package in experimental
 regarding bug 387263 please? Feel free to post your comments on the bug
 report.

The package in experimental looks much better in this regard, thanks for
all your work. :)

BTW, is it necessary to symlink into /usr/lib/mozilla-firefox/plugins?
The 'firefox' package checks /usr/lib/firefox/plugins. Although I
suppose this will change again once 'iceweasel' hits the archive. :)

Bug#387263: flashplugin-nonfree: Fails to install; fails to fail to install

2006-09-13 Thread Sam Morris
Package: flashplugin-nonfree
Version: 7.0.63.8
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable

Hash: SHA1

I installed version 7.0.63.8 today but the update-flashplayer script
failed to complete. It appears the md5sum of the package has changed.

Strangely, aptitude didn't retry the failed configuration attempt; it
seems that the package's postinst does not exit with a failure status
when the upgrade script fails. If I hadn't noticed this then I would be
unknowingly left with the old version installed.
