If you try it then you will see. The eatmydata package does affect flashplugin-nonfree. # eatmydata update-flashplugin-nonfree --install Error in GnuTLS initialization: Failed to acquire random data. Segmentation fault ERROR: wget failed to download http://people.debian.org/~bartm/flashplugin-nonfree/D5C0FC14/get-upstream-version.pl.gz.pgp More information might be available at: http://wiki.debian.org/FlashPlayer # update-flashplugin-nonfree --install ...no output...works... The eatmydata ld_preload is often used with apt in order to remove the performance penalty of fsync(). When this combination is used to upgrade flashplugin-nonfree as it did today in Sid the above errors are seen and the action fails. Having "affects" does not mean a bug in your package flashplugin-nonfree. The bug has been filed against eatmydata. The purpose of "affects" is to log that the problem affects other packages so that people when people have a problem they can see the root cause of the bug. This prevents creation of duplicate bug reports against affected packages. "Affects" does not negatively reflect upon your package flashplugin-nonfree. Bob
