Re: [OT?]Squeeze: update Flashplugin?
Somewhat related to this, I've been having a problem where my system reports: $ sudo update-flashplugin-nonfree --status Flash Player version installed on this system : 11.2.202.442 Flash Player version available on upstream site: 11.2.202.442 But Iceweasel is still reporting the previous version: File: libflashplayer.so Path: /usr/lib/flashplugin-nonfree/libflashplayer.so Version: 11.2.202.440 State: Enabled (STATE_VULNERABLE_UPDATE_AVAILABLE) Shockwave Flash 11.2 r202 Does anyone have a clue what is going on?

Re: [OT?]Squeeze: update Flashplugin? now update java

This will create a java package, which you then can install by using dpkg -i oracle-whatever*.deb. That is just half the battle to install Oracle Java. There are all of the alternatives to set, and there is a bunch of them. What is far easier is to use this ppa: http://www.webupd8.org/2012/06/how-to-install-oracle-java-7-in-debian.html It is just a script, which when it executes will get Oracle Java for you AND install about 20 alternatives ...correctly. Plus, when an update comes out, it will re-run itself. I've used this for years without a single major problem. I highly recommend it. They also offer a Java 8 version as well. I tried it, and went back to 7 for now. :) Ric -- My father, Victor Moore (Vic) used to say: There are two Great Sins in the world... ..the Sin of Ignorance, and the Sin of Stupidity.
