[Bug 815580] [NEW] Package fails to install and no information is provided

[Linuxluver]

Public bug reported:

I am trying to install Adobe Flash plugin via Ubuntu Software Center. I
accept the partner source. It reports the installation as in progress in
the left sidebar. That disappears. There is no record of this install
attempt in History in any context. Flash doesn't work. It apparently
wasn't successful, but I'm left to wonder why. If the install failed or
succeeded, I should be told and the outcome logged, either way. As it
stands there is nothing.
