Hello,
I tried to uninstall break package flashplugin-nonfree with the following command in a terminal :
sudo dpkg --force all --purge flashplugin-nonfree
This is the result (sorry, in french- Look at the end of this comment for a translation in english...) :
dpkg: la zone de la base de données d'état est verrouillée par un autre processus
paps at paps-desktop-2:~$ sudo dpkg --force all --purge flashplugin-nonfree
dpkg : avertissement : problème contourné par utilisation de --force :
Le paquet est dans un état incohérent - vous devriez
le réinstaller avant d'essayer de le supprimer.
(Lecture de la base de données... 235648 fichiers et répertoires déjà installés.)
