[Bug 968759] Re: adobe-flashplugin 11.2.202.228-0lucid1freezes firefox display - crashes some webkit programs (depends on cpu)

 

Please provide an installer (or adapt the existing) for flashplayer 10.3
for people with cpus without sse2.  According to
https://www.adobe.com/support/programs/policies/supported.html 10.3 is
still supported by adobe (which means it gets security fixes), although
I couldn't find anything about how long it will be supported.

Background: There is an one year old upstream bug report:
https://bugbase.adobe.com/index.cfm?event=bug&id=3161034, which probably
means, that this issue will never be fixed by adobe. So instead of
letting people down by either having no working flash at all  (if they
don't have the necessary knowledge to fix this) or by being forced to
use fishy workarounds (like old flash versions with known security
issues), this would provide an easy to use and fairly secure fix for
this problem.
