Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: flashplugin-nonfree

Whether installing the flash plugin with Synaptic, apt-get, through
ubuntu-restricted-extras, or with Firefox, it will install only for
Firefox 2.  When looking at the /plugin/ directories for Firefox 2
(/usr/lib/firefox/plugins) and Firefox 3
(/usr/lib/firefox-3.0b4/plugins) it is revealed that the plugin file is
copied to the FF2 directory, but not FF3.  Manually copying the
flashplugin-alternative.so file over the /usr/lib/firefox-3.0b4/plugins/
solves the issue.

** Affects: flashplugin-nonfree (Ubuntu)
