Comment 131 for bug 173890

Jim and eveybody : updates are designed to fix problems, not to cause new problems. The actual flashplugin-nonfree situation is clearly bad, so we need to find the way to fix this which will solve every problems. Argue is good to define solutions but we should not take solutions that will cause new problems. Trying to estimate the percentage of Firefox/Konqueror user can only give blurry values as we don't have tangible way to calculate. I think that more people will try to help working on a complete solution that will fix problems for everyone in any situation, the more this will get fixed fast and well. Anyway, I and we can't take that decision alone, but we can help this process by making needed information visible, testing new packages in Hardy and keep in touch with ubuntu developpers. When a bug report get so much comments, it's just unusable so I don't think we're helping now. Thanks anyway to everybody who cares about this problem and work to get it fixed.

Matt : Security problems with Flash on a Linux OS, I believe that it's far away from critical, but yes I should be fixed.
