Bug Description

The i386 version of ubuntu-restricted-addons Recommends adobe-flashplugin | flashplugin-installer, whereas the amd64 version only Recommends flashplugin-installer.

It's been years that the adobe-flashplugin package (in partner) work for both architectures, and it is the recommended way of installing the Flash plugin nowadays (https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Chromium/Getting-Flash).

Could you please update the dependencies so that both amd64 and i386 packages Recommend adobe-flashplugin | flashplugin-installer?

Sorry that no one fixed this, the current plan is to remove adobe-flash from the meta-package entirely.

Please do report any other Ubuntu bugs you find.
