Could you send me the output of these commands please ?

Sure.  Note that I use a terminal window that's much larger than 80
columns, so take that into account.

lakeview ok % update-alternatives --list flash-mozilla.so | xargs dpkg -S
dpkg: /usr/lib/nspluginwrapper/plugins/npwrapper.libflashplayer.so not found.

I think the problem is that
/usr/lib/flashplugin-nonfree/libflashplayer.so is not a valid
alternative, but has been set that way for some reason.  Using
"update-alternatives --auto flash-mozilla.so" fixes the problem.
