I also can confirm this on a laptop that previously worked fine with flash,
but I tried gnash and after I went back to flash-nonfree this issue came up. :(

And although both synaptic and the firefox auto plugin installer say
that flash is installed.. it isn't.

As workaround:
Running the flashplayer-installer manually (taken from 
/var/cache/flashplugin-nonfree/install_flash_player_9_linux.tar.gz)
and entering the installation directory "/usr/lib/firefox" seems to install it 
correctly for Firefox.

jorno, it happens because of Adobe licensing restrictions and uploading
conventions.

Also, the design of the flashplugin-nonfree-installer is perhaps overtly
cautious; when it no longer gets the download it expected, it will
refuse to continue.  If we could convince Adobe to not reuse the same
file name when uploading a new version, this approach would have more
merit (albeit result in an older version of the player being installed,
even if a newer version with security fixes were available).

However, this old, closed bug report is not the place to discuss such
things.

Note also that this bug is marked as a duplicate, but in any event, you
are commenting on the problem as it was in Feisty.  If you are
installing on a fresh system, I would assume you are installing Gutsy.

For the record, the current open bug report for this issue in Gutsy
seems to be bug 173890; however, that bug should only be used to discuss
possible solutions at this point.  It does contain some hints regarding
workarounds if you urgently need one.

I can confirm this. I had this exact same problem a month back or so - but 
fixed it using a _ugly_ (imho) hack.
Now I reinstalled another computer, and the same problem occurs.

Download done.
md5sum mismatch install_flash_player_9_linux.tar.gz
The Flash plugin is NOT installed.


This is a SERIOUS bug, and if this is the same problem as I experienced a month 
ago, then this is really serious.
IF, on the other hand, this is a new bug of the exact same kind as last time - 
then there are something really wrong. How can this happen? And why does it 
happen, without beeing fixed right away?

Ubuntu needs to sort things like these out, before expecting less
experienced users to enjoy Ubuntu.

For me, this is a huge pain in the ASS now.
