Public bug reported: adobe-flashplugin installs flash 11 now. The control file still describes it as flash 10, and states that it downloads the player from adobe. This description is inaccurate, as the adobe-flashplugin doesn't download the player like flashplugin-installer does. Also, the flash- properties packages share the exact same description. They should be updated to describe what the flash-properties packages actually do.
Also, the dependencies for adobe-flashplugin are inaccurate. It depends on wget, which is only needed by flashplugin-installer, not adobe- flashplugin. I could create a debdiff for this if it would help, but I think the descriptions could be better written by the actual maintainers of the package. ** Affects: adobe-flashplugin (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/869498 Title: Control file for adobe-flashplugin contains inaccurate description and unnecessary dependencies To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/adobe-flashplugin/+bug/869498/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
