Much has changed regarding the Flash plugin and its support by Adobe and Canonical since this bug was reported. Things are better and simpler. This bug is unlikely to still be occurring, and if it were it certainly wouldn't warrant a Critical status.
The Flash plugin can be installed and kept up-to-date via the flashplugin-installer package in the multiverse repository (NPAPI version) or via the adobe-flashplugin package in Canonical's partner repository (NPAPI and PPAPI versions, recommended). It is currently version 25.0. https://help.ubuntu.com/stable/ubuntu-help/net-install-flash.html I've set this old bug to expire. Please report problems here, or in another bug report, whichever is more appropriate. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Adobe, which is subscribed to adobe-isv. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1284479 Title: Flash does not work in Firefox in Ubuntu 14.04 Status in adobe-isv: Incomplete Status in adobe-flashplugin package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: The plugin does not work, and when I try to install the plugin, there are unmet dependencies.
