sudo dpkg -P lightspark-common gnash
sudo apt-get --purge remove flashplugin-installer gnash-common

Then enable the partner repo and install adobe-flashplugin package from it

Canonical's partner repositories provide a location for software vendors to publish applications. The repo itself can be added by running this in a terminal:

sudo add-apt-repository "deb http://archive.canonical.com/ $(lsb_release -sc) partner"
sudo apt-get update
