We've had nextcloud-client in our repos for a while, but Debian added it to their repos as nextcloud-desktop.

We've backported Debian's , and users should install nextcloud-desktop, which will remove the older -client version automatically.

The regular monthly security update of the Adobe Flash browser plugins was sent to the main repos today, and should soon appear as an update.
