What is the adobe-flashplugin package then? Should it be removed? When removing any and all packages with the name flash in it, then installing from the Adobe site it installs "adobe-flashplugin" not "flashplugin-nonfree" Which are different, so when the update occurs it tries to update "adobe-flashplugin" which has some serious problems.
d...@cerberus:~$ aptitude search adobe-flashplugin i adobe-flashplugin - Adobe Flash Player plugin version 10 d...@cerberus:~$ aptitude search flashplugin-nonfree c flashplugin-nonfree - Adobe Flash Player plugin installer p flashplugin-nonfree-extrasound - Adobe Flash Player platform support librar d...@cerberus:~$ To replicate the problem, remove all flash from the system. Goto www.adobe.com click install flash, and use the .deb package option for Linux. Then when that is installed, you will get an update prompt from the system to update the adobe-flashplugin package, when you do this upgrade it is hosed... mathieg2 wrote: > I've replicated this a few times - I have done 7 installations of ubuntu > this week. > > sudo apt-get remove flashplugin-nonfree > sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree > > clears the problem.
