flashplugin-nonfree (9.0.48.0.0ubuntu10) gutsy; urgency=low

  * debian/dirs: add midbrowser dir to fix install (LP: #139255).
  * debian/postinst: use /var/lib/flashplugin-nonfree/npwrapper.libflashplayer.so
    as alternative target on amd64 (LP: #133452).
  * debian/prerm: fix dpkg-reconfigure error - don't remove debhelper created
    directory in prerm (LP: #139182).
  * debian/prerm: --remove-all alternatives explicitly when this plugin was
    the last $X-flashplugin alternative.
