There is already an AUR package so pacman can keep track of this

Should be removed from wiki - is totally unnecessary and undermines what the AUR is for.

You need to understand what is 32bit libs doing under 64bit. whatever like i said "For those people, who don't like have 32lib on their 64bit machines". and this AUR package source is based on flashplayer_square_p2_32bit_linux_092710.tar.gz not the correct one flashplayer_square_p2_64bit_linux_092710.tar.gz.

if you like AUR just inform them!

Nonsense...

Even, is another way without using AUR, who is also not default packages from Arch community and without install all the base-devel stuff..

Thnx

Manual installation of source files is highly unrecommended on Arch. Sia, this is not the way to do it, that section needs to be removed from the wiki.

As said above, there is a perfectly fine 64bit Square PKGBUILD in the AUR, there is no need for manual approaches.

Sia · 2010-11-02 11:30:23

Is way without using the AUR and install all this devel packages. If the AUR package is working why you didn't wrote https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Br … ins#64-bit
?
"Warning: No automatic security updates for tarball installs If the .tar.gz install method is used, you must manually check the Adobe site for new releases."
Ok just remove this section and added this AUR package in the wiki article about flashplugin!

You don't need any more devel packages with an AUR version, it's a binary plugin. See the PKGBUILD Meyithi linked to.

If the AUR package is working why you didn't wrote https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Br … ins#64-bit?

I guess no one updated the wiki page yet.

You added your text to the Adobe Reader section by the way, instead of the Flash Player section.

"Warning: No automatic security updates for tarball installs If the .tar.gz install method is used, you must manually check the Adobe site for new releases."

For most AUR packages you will need to check yourself if there are new versions available, the same goes for manual compilation for which AUR is just an automated system.

Ok just remove this section and added this AUR package in the wiki article about flashplugin!

Go ahead.

Please READ. The Aur package is working perfectly fine, as is the package in multilib (with ndiswrapper). You are linking to the adobe reader section, which is also where you put in a "manual" way of extracting square. Here is the section about flash. It has already been explained that circumventing pacman has obvious disadvantages, especially with a security-hole-magnet like flashplayer.

And btw, the PKGBUILD in AUR downloads the binary, I doubt you will have to install "all this devel packages" to use it.
