Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: flashplugin-nonfree

There are certain links in flash objects that don't work.  I don't have
the technical know-how to know what the commonalities are between them,
but it looks like it might have something to do with using JavaScript in
the link.  The biggest example is everything on sheezyart.com -- if you
go to someone's art and then click on the preview image to get full
view, or to get the music player to pop up, the art or music player does
not display like it does in other OSes and (so I've heard) other
distros.  Quick example: on http://www.sheezyart.com/view/1374321/ you
should be able to click on the picture of the dragon and get a much
larger picture.  But nothing happens.  This has only been a problem with
one or two other sites (if I can find them again, I'll post them here),
so it must be with some unusual way of doing flash links -- I wouldn't
complain if it wasn't for the fact that listening to a friend's music is
the only reason I ever turn on my Windows computer anymore!

I have Kubuntu on two computers.  This was a problem in feisty, and I
just upgraded to gutsy to make sure it wasn't already fixed, but it's
still there.  A friend installed Ubuntu (feisty) and it did the same
thing for him.  This happens in both firefox and konqueror, so I assume
it's a problem with flashplugin-nonfree.
