I thing there is also another problem in Ubuntu 9.04. [sorry please my English!]

I have installed "adobe-flashplugin" (Synaptic) - it is in new/safe version 10.0.32.18 -and I was think, it is all right.

But ! - at "http://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/" is still reported, that I have "10,0,22,87" version ! (after firefox restart of course). Also users may thing, that after update they are safe, but they did not.

The problem is, that:
/usr/lib/firefox/plugins/flashplugin-alternative.so points to
/etc/alternatives/firefox-flashplugin which points to
/usr/lib/flashplugin-installer/libflashplayer.so AND THIS IS STILL THE OLD "10,0,22,87"

So I did manualy:
mv /usr/lib/flashplugin-installer/libflashplayer.so /usr/lib/flashplugin-installer/libflashplayer.so.old
ln -s /usr/lib/adobe-flashplugin/ libflashplayer.so /usr/lib/flashplugin-installer/libflashplayer.so

BTW - Manage Conten Pluginst allways reports: "Adobe Flash Player (installer)"

I thing, that is bug in "postinst ?" procedure of "adobe-flashplugin" package ?

Thanks for replay.
