  install/upgrade: exit status 2 - update-alternatives: error:
  /var/lib/dpkg/alternatives/iceape-flashplugin corrupt: invalid status

  Invalid

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: flashplugin-nonfree

  When installing flashplugin-installer apt-get reports the error message reported below.
  When this occurs I'm unable to remove or install the plugin. 
  I manually removed the package by using: gksu gedit /var/lib/dpkg/status and removing the package details and then attempted a re-install with the same problem.

  If I look in firefox flash is loaded however the myth packages
  mentioned below appear to require this particular version.

  Download done.
  Flash Plugin installed.
