The install failed with a list of dependencies that could not be resolved. Searching the repos for those dependencies did not yield gold, and pbone couldn't find them either. The moral is, install one package at a time if a group fails. I really should have seen that the dependencies were all for the swfdec packages, not for the flash plugin, but I was so busy trying to find them that I missed it.
