After the update four of five days ago I nticed that Firefox was now
proposing me to install flashplugin automatically (I mean clicking
"install missing plugins" and following the wizard). Previously when I
clicked on that nothing was proposed.

I tried to install the package but the system was givin me the error
that "flashplugin-install" was already installed on the system, su I
purged (via aptitude) the "flashplugin-installer" package and
reinstalled it trough the wizard in Firefox.

Now everything works.

Here the version now installed on my system:
 flashplugin-installer 10.0.45.2ubunt Adobe Flash Player plugin installer

This bud is fixed for me.
