Public bug reported:
Version of Ubuntu: 14.04
Version of the package: 11.2.202.350ubuntu1
Installing flashplugin-installer when a user has not updated the repos
and the flashplugin tar.gz has been removed from the canonical archives
causes flashplugin-installer to show that it has installed successfully
- though on a second look, it has not installed the plugin.
Running wget on the url provided by flashplugin-installer gives off a
404 - yet flashplugin-installer does not indicate this error, nor the
error that should be given when it attempts to extract an archive that
doesnt exist.
** Affects: flashplugin-nonfree (Ubuntu)
