Public bug reported: Binary package hint: flashplugin-nonfree
I installed flashplugin-nonfree version 7.0.63.3ubuntu3 via Synaptic. In the pop up dialog in Synaptic for the flash plugin I clicked yes to allow downloading the plugin. Then following the instructions located at Gnome menu: System>Help>System Documentation I proceeded to use the command: sudo update-flashplugin This always spits out the result: automatic installation failed due to network problems or upstream changes Internet connection is working. I am trying to install the Firefox Flash plugin on Dapper 6.0.6.1. Please note that I do not use Backports on this particular Dapper installation and am not interested in using Backports for flash. Any help or explanation would be appreciated.
