Bug Description

Binary package hint: flashplugin-nonfree

With Flash 10 using a native x86_64 library the nspluginwrapper is no longer needed and is actually harmful as it makes Flash on x86_64 far less stable and likely to work than using the library natively. I'm surprised to see this dependency is even in karmic.

In Debian there is no such dependency:
http://packages.debian.org/squeeze/flashplugin-nonfree

Thanks!
