Bug Description

If the flashplayer-mozilla package is installed, trying to install flashplugin-nonfree fails:

Unpacking replacement flashplugin-nonfree ...
Setting up flashplugin-nonfree (7.0.68~ubuntu2) ...
Downloading... done.
installation failed

That's probably because some of the files it tries to install already exist from the flashplayer-mozilla package.

Probably the packages should conflict with each other (in debian/control).
