As a workaround, add an entry in /etc/hosts for fpdownload.macromedia.com to a webserver you control. Then, download install_flash_player_9_linux.tar.gz to a directory under your webserver root to satisfy the package's wget command:
http://<Your-Webserver- Here>/get/flashplayer/current/install_flash_player_9_linux.tar.gz Not quite as simple as aluink's solution (and certainly not adequate for any mothers out there ;) but results in a "cleaner" fix. -- Hardy: Flash can't be installed since install_flash_player_9_linux.tar.gz can't be retrieved https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/304969 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
