[Bug 554449] Re: adobe-flashplugin is virtual error when installing flash from Adobe site.

[terakin]

Today, as Adobe released Flash 11 (officially 64 bit compatible), I
tried to download it from Adobe site, and encountered same problem. By
selecting "Linux (64-bit)" and "Ubuntu (apt)", Firefox urged me to use
apturl to process the download. Then, popup window said that I need to
add new repository "lucid-partner", and after processing repositories,
another popup told "adobe-flashplugin is virtual package".  I am using
Lucid 64bit (10.04 LTS) and already installed beta version of 11 from
tarball (so, not urgent).
