its a problem with how wget gets its proxy settings when invoked by apt or synaptic, etc. not a problem in the flashplugin package. i have the same problem when wine or b43 firmware is installed as both these packages download tarballs or other files during the installation process.

for now the workaround would be setting http_proxy in /etc/wgetrc
