I appreciate the people doing this, but this is a serious issue. I have
to resort to firing up a VM or resorting to the command line on my local
server to update my web sites because I can't do it from Testing.

What file manager do you use?

I stopped using FileZilla for ftps years ago and only use MATE's caja
these days. Hasn't stopped working and I keep my (bullseye) system
up-to-date, so whatever TLS library caja is using, this bug doesn't
affect it.



gFtp seems to fail also.  Do you know what works for Gnome on sid?


No idea, sorry.

I use Xfce, but I don't like Thunar, so I installed caja. caja is based 
on GNOME's nautilus, so would expect that to work as well. Haven't tried 
it though.

And how do you get that 10 year newer flash?  The adobe site doesn't
show me anything newer than the 11.xx.xx.xxx stuff.


Really? Both https://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/ and
https://get.adobe.com/nl/flashplayer/ definitely show 25.0.0.148 for
me.

After writing that, I did a google search, which gave me a slightly
different adobe url and that link gave me a tarball of 25.0.0.148.  The
installation instructions were a bit confusing, so I wound up
overwriting libflashplayer.so in 5 locations with this newer version.
Leftovers from previous attempts to arrive at a working 75% of the time
flash player.  No one, including me, has a clue where the one being used
actually is.


I usually look in /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins, but the plugin file there 
may actually be a symlink pointing to something in /etc/alternatives, 
which in turn will probably point to some other item somewhere in 
/usr/lib...
