Not definitive, but I would guess that the package downloads the file to 
a temporary directory, then unpacks the flash plugin from it and 
installs it on your system. Finally, the temporary directory is deleted 
once it's no longer needed.


The text "Saving to ..." and "... saved" would appear to come from wget, 
but it would probably be nice for the package installer to echo 
something afterwards to indicate that it's done more than just download 
a file onto your system.
