Hi,

I cannot install the package due to a checksum problem. Downloading the
archive from Adobe yields this checksum:

$ sha512sum /tmp/install_flash_player_10_linux.tar.gz 
acec4970201c108457bd8935095d524ec45d47de9f723e1ac3618191cd2ba2c04fe6f604dd7f91776cce753e9cc447f4a6ef3535feef246eee77862ce9805031
 /tmp/install_flash_player_10_linux.tar.gz


But trying to install the package gives:

...
  4750K .......... .......... .......... .......... .......... 98%  660K 0s
  4800K .......... .......... .......... .......... .......... 99%  691K 0s
  4850K .                                                     100% 2362G=7.1s

Maybe Adobe released a new version of this software?

In any case, not being able to install the latest flash player does
usually leave users with a gaping security hole.

In this case, as the checksum file is from March 22nd, could be wrong
since in the meantime, Adobe might have released a new version.

Kind regards,
