The current package is terrible... I found it downloads a corrupted gz file,
so I downloaded a good one from macromedia's website, and proceeded to
update-flashplugin -l /path/to/install_file.gz and it still had problems, I
commented out the "clean up on failure" block on the update-flashplugin
script (I was kind of lazy to check which file was causing problems, but the
problem's there)

Voila.

If I happend to fix the script, where should I submit it?
