Wow, what a lot of fuss :D I hesitate to add more to this thread, but after scanning briefly the comments here, I haven't noticed anybody put forward the following perspective:
Putting aside the issues of the md5sum & failure of the package management system to recognise that the plugin was not installed (since those are clear-cut), the problem has to do with properly representing package relationships such that the package management system can deal with the Konqueror issue. To my mind at least, the only 'correct' fix (prior to resolution of the XEmbed issue in Konqueror) is to make flashplugin-nonfree a meta-package depending on one or the other of two separate binary packages for the two versions of the flash plugin, the newest of which conflicts with the konqueror package? PS: I don't agree with the sentiment that the best solution is the one that satisfies the most people in the shortest time - that attitude belongs with the proprietary model of software development and should stay there.
