Title:
  broken packaging: package flashplugin-nonfree failed to
  install/upgrade: (breaks upgrade)

Status in flashplugin-nonfree package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in flashplugin-nonfree source package in Lucid:
  Fix Released
Status in flashplugin-nonfree source package in Karmic:
  Won't Fix

Bug description:
  TEST CASE for 8.04 -> 10.04 SRU:
  1. use hardy
  2. install flashplugin-nonfree
  3. run "update-manager --proposed" to upgrade to lucid
  4. verify that it fails in flashplugin-nonfree

  5. use fresh hardy ubuntu desktop but enable hardy-proposed this time
  6. repeat 2,3
  7. verify that it works now

  Its not really needed to reproduce the failure (step 2,3,4) because of the amount of duplicates. I consider
  this verification a success if 5,6,7 works ok.

  TEST CASE 2: Removal of flashplugin-nonfree
  $ apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree
  $ apt-get remove flashplugin-nonfree

  VERIFICATION DONE:
  - Package is removed cleanly

  
  Binary package hint: flashplugin-nonfree

  Upgrading 9.04 -> latest karmic.
