Bug Description
1) The version and edition of Linux Mint you are using (if you are not sure, open a terminal and run "mintwelcome").
Mint Cinnamon 17.1
2) What you did for the problem to happen, and how to reproduce it.
Just install pepperflashplug
3) What happened.
The installation process finishes with 0 exit statuss but flash (pepperflash) does not work in chromium. The output contains following suboutput:
ERROR: wget failed to download http://
It's weird because simple command:
wget http://
downloads file without error.
Here I've read that this problem has been fixed in version 1.6:
https:/
The repository version is 1.3ubuntu1 :(
4) What you expected to happen instead.
Working pepperflash plugin in chromium.
5) If the problem happened once, sometimes, or always.
always
