[Bug 853512] Re: Adobe Flash plug-in (flashplugin-installer) shown but not installable

 

This bug happend because not all oneiric system were converted to the
new "multiarch" configuration. With the recent dpkg upload this should
be fixed now:

dpkg (1.16.0.3ubuntu4) oneiric; urgency=low

  * Add /etc/dpkg/dpkg.cfg.d/multiarch as a conffile on amd64, so that users
    are guaranteed to always have it after upgrade even if they don't use
    update-manager for the upgrade itself.  Also fixes up the problem of
    systems installed at 11.10 beta 1 missing the file due to an installer
    bug.  LP: #846451.
