    Perhaps my posting "Debian release changed" may help you.

    Thanks, Werner, but I get a similar result.
    It looks like it needs some Compiz information?

    Downloading it directly from Adobe and doing a manual installation will work. It used to give me a headache when doing it via Debian's repository.

    What's complicated to use
    Code:
    aptitude install flashplugin-nonfree
    after updating the cache of apt?

    At time you'll get V1:3.6.1 and within Iceweasel you have Shockwave Flash 11.2.202.457

    @ Werner

    Not complicated to get it done via apt-get at all; It's a one off operation if the persistent image is used. If there is no persistent overlay, installing it on the fly will be a must. If my memory still serves me OKish, there was a time that the .deb package couldn't source the real package from somewhere else intermittently (don't really know where the real package is from). That's where my headache was from...

    Thank you all for your suggestions, but I'm still stumped.

    I'm using Knoppix 7.4.2 as a LiveUSB.
    IceWeasel, Using Flash 202.429, indicates it needs upgrading.

    I have tried both the the Install Components approach and Werner's
    Aptitude approach and both fail to upgrade my IceWeasel to Flash 202.457.

    Failure seems to be related to missing public keys for Compiz in both cases.

    Shockwave Flash 'Update Now' prompt that shows under IceWeasel Tools > Add-0ns
    can't find anything to offer as a solution.
