I have the latest 12.04 version of Ubuntu. Yesterday I installed the latest updates and right away I got this message:



'The following packages requested additional data downloads after package installation, but the data could not be downloaded or could not be processed.



flashplugin-installer



The download will be attempted again later, or you can try the download again now. Running this command requires an active Internet connection.'



I then tried to install the plugin using the apt-get command and here are the results:

When I go to Youtube, there's a message in the right upper corner about installing the missing plugins. When I click on it, there's another message saying that Firefox is checking for the missing plugins but then nothing really happens. It is kind of weird since some flash videos on Youtube work and some do not.



What could be wrong?



Thank you.

Had the same problem yesterday. Maybe Ubuntu is having network troubles (also got some 403 errors on apt-get update for some time yesterday).



Today I just uninstalled the flashplayer-installer and installed it again. This time the network connection to archive.canonical.com worked fine. Just try it again some time later, this might solve the problem.



If you really need the flashplayer now, you could download it from http://get.adobe.com/de/flashplayer/ and install it by hand.
