I've hit this bug when upgrading Maverick to Natty, and
I've also had it happen a year or two ago during a previous upgrade.
The older one:
- For some reason after downloading everything in a full GUI-led upgrade,
some other package
caused the wireless network to turn off and flashplugin
My problem with the proxy named false was caused by an old proxy
setting in /etc/apt/apt.conf dating back to Ubuntu dapper. Removing
this proxy setting cured the problem.
But the problem with the flashplugin-installer package remains in case
of a network failure.

This error is caused by wget using a proxy (named false?), even if you
didn't want or choose to use one. As a temporary fix it is possible to
uncomment use_proxy = off in /etc/wgetrc, or add --no-proxy to the
wget command in the package's postinst script.

I've had to do the same as vladf. On my laptop the flashplugin-installer
worked fine, on the desktop it didn't (both up to date natty). Strange,
as the network settings are exactly the same, and go over the same
router. Manually downloaded via wget.

For the record, flash worked okay after a `sudo dpkg-reconfigure
flashplugin-installer`. It was probably just a temporary wireless
network failure. However, the actual problem is that when there is such
