This is not a "flashplugin" issue as it happens randomly with some other
packages when a script validate an upgrade. that one has not been
updated to support the new apt design "'_apt'"
The real problem is : there is _apt user on the system
grep -B2 _apt /var/lib/dpkg/info/apt.postinst
# add unprivileged user for the apt methods
adduser --force-badname --system --home /nonexistent \
--no-create-home --quiet _apt || true
# Fixup any mistake in the home directory of the _apt user
if dpkg --compare-versions "$2" lt-nl 1.1~exp10~; then
usermod --home /nonexistent _apt
** Changed in: flashplugin-nonfree (Ubuntu)
Status: Confirmed => Invalid
** This bug has been marked a duplicate of bug 1522675
