Title:
  Plugin upgrade via package management fails without purge

Status in flashplugin-nonfree package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  For the past three versions of the flash plugin installer, the install
  does not install properly.  The package upgrade shows up in the
  automatic upgrades from the security upgrades repository.  The package
  gets installed without visible errors, but once installed, the flash
  plugin does not appear at all in chrome/chromium's list of installed
  plugins.  In fact, no flash plugin is listed at all.  Chrome is not
  running when the install happens.

  The only way to fix this is to apt-get purge flashplugin-installer and
  then install it again.  After that, everything shows up in chrome
  properly.

  I am using flashplugin version 10.3.183.10 
  Chrome version 14.0.835.186
  Kubuntu 11.04
  KDE 4.7.0
