Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: flashplugin-installer

Upgraded from 8.10 to 9.04RC.
Firefox complained about the missing plugin, so I tried to install the Adobe Flash player, but it said the package flashplugin-installer was already installed.

I'm on 64-bit Ubuntu - 8.04 upgraded to 8.10 upgraded to 9.04RC. (I think it's RC, because I upgraded at 11:30pm IST on 22nd April, but I don't know if there is any way to check for sure.)
Not sure if it's relevant, but I saw some information regarding this on the forums, so I'll mention that I'm running Compiz, and "Unredirect fullscreen windows" is checked.

Workaround:
I purged flashplugin-installer and flashplugin-nonfree, and reinstalled flashplugin-installer and everything is fine.

** Affects: flashplugin-nonfree (Ubuntu)
