Not only Flash, but also Java stopped working...
And it *is* a bug. It worked without problem before releasing that
security update... Why on the earth you push update to stable LTS relase
where is expected that everything will work after update which break
more Flash and Java applications? For experiments there are development
versions, but not long term support versions in middle of livecycle.

Title:
[precise] critical: flash stopped working after last update
Status in “chromium-browser” package in Ubuntu:
New
Bug description:
Ubuntu released new version of chromium-browser
(36.0.1985.125-0ubuntu1.12.04.0~pkg897) for LTS 12.04 precise relase.
After updating chromium-browser from previous version
(34.0.1847.116-0ubuntu~1.12.04.0~pkg884) flash plugin stopped working.
Flash plugin is properly installed but it chromium does not see it and
show message that is not installed. Firefox has no problem and can
load flash object.
I suspect that this is because of dropping NPAPI support in chrome 36.
But ubuntu does not have pepper flash in repositories so it is not
possible to use flash on 12.04 anymore.
So this is critical problem because one month ago everything worked
fine and new *broken* version of chromium-browser is in precise-
security/universe archive. I suggest to revert chromium back to
*working* version or do something else -- because new *security*
update totally broke flash support on 12.04 LTS release.
Once again 12.04 is LTS release where is expected that updates marked
as security will *not* break existing application support -- this is
not *experimental* update.
