I am using ubuntu 16.04.

I have used the commands

sudo apt-get install pepperflashplugin-nonfree

sudo update-pepperflashplugin-nonfree --install

to install pepper flash but after the 2nd command I get this error

2017-07-08 10:41:44 (397 KB/s) - ‘/tmp/pepperflashplugin-nonfree.eWBPA0Obal/google-chrome-stable_59.0.3071.115-1_amd64.deb’ saved [60833124/60833124]



mv: cannot stat 'unpackchrome/opt/google/chrome/PepperFlash/libpepflashplayer.so': No such file or directory.

So how can I uninstall pepper-flashplugin in Ubuntu 16.04?
