> I suggested people to ask Adobe for permanent links
The problem is that the link should be to the latest good code, not the code with known security defects. And Ubuntu seems to be saying that they require a local checksum to forcibly break the install whenever Adobe changes the package. So a permanent link to bad code is worse than a permanent link to good code that won't install until Ubuntu gets a O2It.
