#190

This bug is still outstanding on a 32 bit gutsy clean install.
I've done nothing on this machine but install gutsy, then the updates, then attempted to install the flashplugin via the firefox 'install plugins' bar. It reported that it was installed, but it didn't.

Checking this bug report made me try again this way (see below) which as you can see still isn't working.
