I think the developers know enough already about how frustrated users are. Maybe as a community we can help solutions for new people. I encourage people to go around Ubuntu Forums, Launchpad Answers, Launchpad Bugs, etc. and help other users with problems like these. Maybe something like a reference to http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=636397 would be useful to users suffering from this problem, especially those who don't see the mismatch error (and only see an installed flashplugin-nonfree in Synaptic).

And because there have been many complaints over the fact that some "fixed" packages are available only to forum users, I have attached an archive of the files here. I do not believe you will be able to use 64-bit flashplugin-nonfree package without modifications on Ubuntu releases before 7.10.
