Title:
doesn't actually download flash plugin
Status in “flashplugin-nonfree” package in Ubuntu:
Incomplete
Bug description:
I have installed:
flashplugin-installer:
Installed: 11.2.202.238ubuntu0.12.04.1
Candidate: 11.2.202.238ubuntu0.12.04.1
But when I run:
$ sudo dpkg-reconfigure flashplugin-installer
And hit return at the "Location to the local file:" prompt, leaving
the input empty so that the installer will download the flash plugin
as it says it will in the explanation of the input field: "... If you
have not already downloaded it, leave this blank and the package will
be downloaded automatically."
But no download actually happens and "dpkg-reconfigure flashplugin-
installer" exits without doing anything.
