Binary package hint: flashplugin-nonfree

New install of current Natty. Browsing in firefox. Clicked on a "Click here to download plugin" inline graphic. The installer opened but did not finish for minutes. I broke it off. Next tried lightspark from software center. Did not see any flash after restarting firefox. Installed adobe flash via software center. That ended with the error "flashplugin-installer ... failed".

Another Natty install today that was supposed to install flash while installing failed iirc like that, too.
