Bug description:
Binary package hint: flashplugin-nonfree

flashplugin-nonfree package fails to install with the following error:

md5sum mismatch install_flash_player_9_linux.tar.gz
The Flash plugin is NOT installed.

Could be a new version of flash plugin released for download?

*** IMPORTANT NOTICE ***
The fix for this plugin has been released (let's hope that it will last and adobe won't change the md5sum again)
>From the menu:
System - > Administration - > Software sources - > be sure than you have selected the "main", "universe", "restricted" and multiverse".
Then go to the Updates tab - > check "security", "updates" and "proposed"
Now "Close" and "Reload".

after that, do this in the terminal:
sudo apt-get remove --purge flashplugin-nonfree
sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree

*** IMPORTANT NOTICE no.2 ***
For all of you that *STILL* complain, which repositories do you use?
Check if your repositories are up to date: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+archivemirrors
Otherwise, try switching to "Download from" - > "Main server" (at system - > administration - > software sources)
Close and Reload.

Then do this in terminal:
sudo apt-get clean
sudo apt-get autoclean
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get remove -y --purge flashplugin-nonfree
sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree

If the above don't work, please post your Ubuntu version release and apt-cache policy flashplugin-nonfree info, it will be easier to track down.
