The problem is that this port was renamed. If you are using portmaster, you
can either delete the old port with:
# pkg delete flashplugin
and re-instal it or update with:
# portmaster -o www/linux-flashplayer flashplugin

If you use portupgrade, you are on your own as I m unsure of the proper
commands, though the first method will work. (Delete and re-install.)
