Bug Description

Binary package hint: flashplugin-nonfree

laptop battery died during installation. Installation must not have finished. Couldn't uninstall flash. Couldn't reinstall flash. Flash content did not play. Stated that the pluggins were still required. Installed flashaid, choose 64 bit, and its working now. A little nervous that flashaid used my password to install. Lots of scripting flew buy.
