Hi Guys

I'm having a strange issue with flushplugin-installer.  On a recent 
update, I started getting the following message:

*Failure to download extra data files*
The following packages requested additional data downloads after package 
installation, but the data could not be downloaded or could not be 
processed.
flashplugin-installer
The download will be attempted again later, or you can try the download 
again now.  Running this command requires an active Internet connection.

When I try to install it via aptitude I get the following output:

Unpacking flashplugin-installer (from 
.../flashplugin-installer_11.2.202.238ubuntu0.12.04.1_i386.deb) ...
Processing triggers for update-notifier-common ...
flashplugin-installer: downloading 
http://archive.canonical.com/pool/partner/a/adobe-flashplugin/adobe-flashplugin_11.2.202.238.orig.tar.gz
Installing from local file /tmp/tmpxN0C7W.gz
Flash Plugin installed.
Setting up flashplugin-installer (11.2.202.238ubuntu0.12.04.1) ...

but then I get a pop-up message complaining about the file 
"/tmp/tmpxN0C7W.gz"

Any ideas?

Regards
Charl
