  I would assume that anybody would know that already.  But again
 the non-free flash plugin (and java packages) automate the agreement
 to the license as part of the post-install.

  I guess I'm not really complaining, so much as hoping that if there
 were a package that installing it would be sufficient alone.

  I'll not object any more, but if you do manage to find a way to
 do the agreement + wget I'm sure people would find it simpler to
 use.
