Rather than just complaining, I'll add a thought -- if the only change

How can this possibly be a low priority bug?
I had a nicely working Hardy system. I uninstalled flash in order to try gnash.
Now I want to switch back to adobe's flash.
I can't.
Four months ago, flash installed just fine, now it does not.
Seems like quite a regression.

This is not an invalid bug. Hardy is still the LTS release. This

the package to point to the latest release of Flash 9.

There are security vulnerabilities in old versions of the Flash Player:
http://www.adobe.com/support/security/bulletins/apsb09-01.html
Someone should fix this as soon as possible.
The updated Flash Player can be downloaded here:
For a fresh Hardy 64-bit install, with updates and multiverse enabled,
you should be able to grab 9.0.152.0ubuntu1~hardy1 which still pulls the
binary from the download.macromedia.com location. Or, just grab the deb
file from http://packages.ubuntu.com/hardy-updates/flashplugin-nonfree

As a workaround, add an entry in /etc/hosts for
fpdownload.macromedia.com to a webserver you control. Then, download

root to satisfy the package's wget command:

In addition to the three points mentioned by Christoph, the flashplugin-

My mother would not click on details but would wonder, why on almost every
website, there is an ugly little window indicating, that a plug-in is missing.
By writing, the error itself remains, I meant, The Flash plugin is [STILL]

adobe-flashplugin is not available for amd64 architecture whereas
flashplugin-nonfree is.

@Daniel, this is a really bad idea

There was no need to change the status though. Please refer to

statuses.
Triaged: A member of UbuntuBugControl believes that the report
describes a genuine bug in enough detail that a developer could start
working on a fix
Another major component of this bug is the poor failure status. If you
install from the GUI, there is no error indicating that the package did
not install. This also happened when Flash went from 8 to 9, so this
part of the bug is very longstanding!

Please tell us about what solution you are talking. I'm main developer of
Ubuntu-based distribution and new Baltix operating system users are very
unhappy,
I'd like to confirm this bug on my system, too.
I'd also like to follow the advice of Christoph Langer in switching to Flash

Adobe moved the files around on their web server. Where the Flash 9
tarball used to be there is now a Flash 10 tarball (which makes sense as
it's in a directory labelled current). If we can find where the old
tarball was moved to it should be a simple update of the URL; otherwise
