[Bug 487116] [NEW] Flash-plugin NonFree won't upgrade and prevents APT from working in 10.04

[julianweber]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: flashplugin-nonfree

I upgraded to 10.04 using the update console.  Everyting worked except
for FlashPlugin-nonfree.  Dpkg claimed that the package was in a very
inconsistent state and should be reinstalled before removal.  I could
not get it to reinstall with dpkg.  I also could not get it removed even
using --force-reinstall-required.  It would start the removal and then
fail.
