Bug description:
  My system is a Dell Vostro 1320 on which I installed the Broadcom wireless network driver after I had installed Ubuntu 10.04 LTS.  I received this error when I tried to install the "flashplugin-installer" from the Synaptic Package Manager. 
  I also tried to run the Flash Player Install from the Adobe  web page and that also failed. I selected the "APT for Ubuntu 9.04+" and then pressed the "Agree and Install Now" button.

  I expected the Flash player to be installed as a plugin for Firefox
  but it fails to complete.
