[Bug 1544409] Re: Flash plugin is installed as a dependency of browser-plugin-freshplayer-pepperflash (freshplayerplugin) even if it is already installed by another package
Makes sense. Now we need an Ubuntu MOTU maintainer to take a look at
this. I can't offer to put the alternative in place myself, it is beyond
my skills (one day hopefully).

I checked and there aren't, at least in 14.04 LTS (that I'm using).
There is however a proper Conflicts between flashplugin-installer and
adobe-flashplugin, that both provide NPAPI Flash, so I think it makes
sense that there is one too between pepperflashplugin-nonfree and adobe-
flashplugin, that both provide PPAPI Flash.
I've subscribed the maintainers of the partner repository since they are
in charge of adobe-flashplugin. I hope it's the way to go.
