« on: 2012/09/15, 11:54:15 »
Hi,

during d-u tonight package flashplugin-nonfree was updatet, too.

After starting iceweasel the plugin wasn't present there anymore.
But:
Code: [Select]
update-flashplugin-nonfree --install --verbose
options :  --install --verbose --
temporary directory: /tmp/flashplugin-nonfree.IYbGZ0TVFs
importing public key ...
selected action = --install
installed version = 11.2.202.238
upstream version = 11.2.202.238
upstream version 11.2.202.238 is already installed
end of action --install
cleaning up temporary directory /tmp/flashplugin-nonfree.IYbGZ0TVFs ...
end of update-flashplugin-nonfree

An
Code: [Select]
apt-get purge flashplugin-nonfree followed by an
Code: [Select]
apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree brought it back.


greets
ayla

EDIT:

As testet on a second machine
Code: [Select]
apt-get install --reinstall flashplugin-nonfree solves too.

my d-u last night did not cause any trouble:
Code: [Select]
pol flashplugin-nonfree
flashplugin-nonfree:
  Installiert:           1:3
  Installationskandidat: 1:3
  Versionstabelle:
 *** 1:3 0
        500 http://ftp.de.debian.org/debian/ unstable/contrib amd64 Packages
        100 /var/lib/dpkg/status

Because of 64 bit?

I didn't see any problem with it here, either -- I just ran d-u and got towo's new 3.5.4 kernel.

Code: [Select]
root@imerabox:/home/don# apt-cache policy flashplugin-nonfree
flashplugin-nonfree:
  Installed: 1:3
  Candidate: 1:3

Strange

Code: [Select]
apt-cache policy flashplugin-nonfree
flashplugin-nonfree:
  Installiert:           1:3
  Installationskandidat: 1:3
  Versionstabelle:
 *** 1:3 0
        500 http://http.debian.net/debian/ unstable/contrib amd64 Packages
        100 /var/lib/dpkg/status


but:
Code: [Select]
uname -a
Linux nescaya 3.5-3.towo-siduction-amd64


Seems I was a bit earlier with my d-u, towos new kernel still wasn't available then. Strange anyway.
Updated two 64-bit-machines about 23h ago, both lost the plugin in the iceweasel addons and a site I often use recommended to install it.


EDIT: hmm, maybe not so strange at all. For some reason there is a update of flashplugin-nonfree again tonight.

Code: [Select]
apt-cache policy flashplugin-nonfree
flashplugin-nonfree:
  Installiert:           1:3.1
  Installationskandidat: 1:3.1
  Versionstabelle:
 *** 1:3.1 0
        500 http://http.debian.net/debian/ unstable/contrib amd64 Packages
