On the Adobe website this is an obvious step: click the respective button. In the case of a package which can be installed automatically as a dependency there is no such obvious step to accept the EULA (I wouldn't have even known the package was being installed had I not spotted it downloading). In my case the primary package I installed was Opera, but I don't consider that relevant.
It's not really my place to say, but I would suggest some kind of prompt at installation time (like Debian does on some packages) may be the best solution, or alternatively only enabling the respective repository after prompting the user on the EULA, or some such. For what its worth, my real gripe is that I prefer to choose on a case- by-case basis which non-free (by DFSG terms) software I install, and since I had chosen not to install Adobe flash I was not happy about it being installed behind-my-back, so to speak. However accepting or not accepting Adobe's EULA is a close enough proxy that it doesn't seem worth worrying about the difference. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Canonical Partner Developers, which is subscribed to adobe-flashplugin in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1132690 Title: adobe-flashplugin installs without license agreement To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/adobe-flashplugin/+bug/1132690/+subscriptions _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~canonical-partner-dev Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~canonical-partner-dev More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
