I can purge the package and install it repeated with no problems. I do not see any errors from it. If you are motivated the update-flashplugin-nonfree is a script and may be viewed and debugged fairly easily. It might take a little bit of effort but it isn't too hard. I start with something like this: sh -x /usr/sbin/update-flashplugin-nonfree --install 2>&1 | tee /tmp/fp.out Then I look through the output and the script side by side. > > You can test this.

The X11R6 part is typical for Squeeze but is dropped in Wheezy. It was used in the older X Window System. All okay. I had asked about PATH since in Wheezy the sudo PATH configuration changes and the change has caused some trouble with missing directories. The above is good. > Well, it has been a quite instructive week for me. > Thank you everyone. > I now want to close this case. Good luck! Bob
