I kind of fixed the problem:
- First removed nspluginwrapper totally (incl purging settings)
- Then removed all mozilla-plugins installed on my system
- Rebooted
- reinstalled nspluginwrapper -> No problems during installation
- then reinstalled the mozilla-plugins

[Anton Piatek (anton-piatek)]

Attached is my log of failing to install nspluginwrapper. I have several plugins in the mozilla plugins dir, and I would prefer to not have to remove them:

I also got this problem today when upgrading from 10.10 to 11.04 (kubuntu).

The workarround solution solved my problem. I removed all plugins: two java plugins (icetead and sun), googletalk, flash and even a gstreamer one that I wasn't sure if it was a browser plugin.

I removed the nspluginwrapper package, reinstalled it (i guess a simple "dkpg --configure -a" would do the job). After that, I reinstalled all plugins without a problem.

[Boris Dalstein (dalboris)]

Also got this problem (Kubuntu 11.04, 64 bits) today after desinstalling and reinstalling nspluginwrapper to update flashplayer, following this: http://doc.ubuntu-fr.org/flashplayer

deleting all the files in /usr/lib64/mozilla/plugins and reconfigure dkpg solved the problem too:

cd /usr/lib64/mozilla/plugins/
sudo rm *
sudo dpkg --configure -a

[Prateek Karandikar (prateek.karandikar)]

I'm having the same problem on Kubuntu 11.10 64-bit, after upgrading from 11.04. People here are saying they deleted *all* their Firefox plugins - does one really need to delete plugins which have nothing to do with flash? Also, as far as I know flashplugin-installer downloads the actual flash plugin during installation. Is there any way to force it to redownload? I have purged and reinstalled flashplugin-installer and nspluginwrapper several times, but it never seems to download the plugin while installing.

I deleted /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins/flashplugin-alternative.so too, which is just a symbolic link to /etc/alternatives/mozilla-flashplugin. When flashplugin-installer and nspluginviewer are installed, /etc/alternatives/mozilla-flashplugin points to /var/lib/flashplugin-installer/npwrapper.libflashplayer.so, and otherwise it points to /usr/lib/flashplugin-installer/libflashplayer.so. This last file stays even if I purge all relevant packages and deleting it only screws things up when I try to install flashplugin-installer and nspluginviewer again.

So how is one supposed to get flash working?
