update flashplugin-nonfree (or use a cronjob)

[michaa7]

Again, critical bug closed:
EN: http://www.h-online.com/security/news/item/June-updates-for-Flash-and-Air-close-a-critical-hole-1886972.html
DE: http://www.heise.de/newsticker/meldung/Juni-Updates-fuer-Flash-Player-und-Co-1886758.html

As I feel these warnings become annoying I want to suggest to all of us flashplugin-nonfree users to configure our computers like described here (thanks absolute):
http://forum.siduction.org/index.php?msg=29597#29597
... and be done with it.


If you like this solution please do not update manually today and tell us weather the cronjob did the job successfully. Else update with:

update-flashplugin-nonfree -iv

and again...

Also please double check if it is working at all!

Because, i did get a 404-error and did the manual download - via heise.de download link, adobe site, unpack and copy according to Readme - to finally get

Code Select Expand

update-flashplugin-nonfree -iv
options :  -i -v --
temporary directory: /tmp/flashplugin-nonfree.3V5oaVZ0Q7
importing public key ...
selected action = --install
installed version = 11.2.202.336
upstream version = 11.2.202.336
upstream version 11.2.202.336 is already installed
end of action --install
cleaning up temporary directory /tmp/flashplugin-nonfree.3V5oaVZ0Q7 ...
end of update-flashplugin-nonfree
for a successful update.

Edit: Some typos etc.

Oh I see, it is also 404

[michaa7]

Ahh, your above postings show I'm not alone with this.

And for those primarily reading the update-warning section, I've updated the update-script.
