ii flashplugin-nonfree 9.0.48.0.2+really0ubuntu12 Adobe Flash Player plugin
installer
As you can see from the above information, firefox and flash plugin are
installed. However, when flash elements are present Firefox has the "Plugin
not installed, click here to install plugin" message. It then tells me that
the flash plugin is already installed.
