I went to software center and found 2 packages: 'adobe flash plugin' and 'adobe flash plugin 10'. I installed the flash plugin via command line: apt-get install adobe- flashplugin Afterwards I went back to software center to check if one of them is marked as installed, but this was not the case. However 'adobe- flashplugin' is really installed on my system. Since the 'adobe-flashplugin' package is the same as the 'adobe flash plugin 10' package in the software center, it should be marked as installed (which is not the case). Steps: (64-bit Ubuntu 11.10) 1. Open software center 2. Search for 'adobe flash': 2 results ('adobe flash plugin' and 'adobe flash plugin 10') 3. Notice that both plugins can be installed 4. (Notice that 'adobe-flashplugin' = 'adobe flash plugin 10') 5. Open terminal 6. sudo apt-get install adobe-flashplugin 7. Open software center 8. Search for 'adobe flash' (or 'adobe-flashplugin') 9. Notice that both results ('adobe flash plugin' and 'adobe flash plugin 10') are still marked as not installed 'adobe flash plugin 10' should be marked as installed ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 11.10 Package: software-center 5.0.1.4 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 3.0.0-12.20-generic 3.0.4 Uname: Linux 3.0.0-12-generic x86_64 NonfreeKernelModules: nvidia ApportVersion: 1.23-0ubuntu3 Architecture: amd64 Date: Tue Oct 18 10:18:57 2011 InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 11.10 "Oneiric Ocelot" - Release amd64 (20111011) PackageArchitecture: all SourcePackage: software-center UpgradeStatus: No upgrade log present (probably fresh install) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/software-center/+bug/877302/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages Post to : desktop-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
