You're right, thanks for the hint. In fact plf version is 
flash-player-plugin and non-free is flashplayer-plugin (no '-' between 
flash and player), which prevented automatically updating the plf 
version to the more recent flashplayer-plugin-10.3.181.34

Maybe both sources should use the same naming ?
