NSPluginWrapper Issues with Epiphany.

So, i was trying to make Flash work with Epiphany as per the ArchWiki's instructions. However, I keep getting this error message:

[shaun@arch ~]$ nspluginwrapper -n -v -a -i
Auto-install plugins from /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins
Looking for plugins in /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins
*** NSPlugin Viewer  *** ERROR: /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins/libflashplayer.so: wrong ELF class: ELFCLASS64
*** NSPlugin Viewer  *** ERROR: /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins/libgnome-shell-browser-plugin.so: wrong ELF class: ELFCLASS64
*** NSPlugin Viewer  *** ERROR: /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins/libnpjp2.so: wrong ELF class: ELFCLASS64
Install plugin /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins/nppdf.so
  into /home/shaun/.mozilla/plugins/npwrapper.nppdf.so
Auto-install plugins from /home/shaun/.mozilla/plugins
Looking for plugins in /home/shaun/.mozilla/plugins
[shaun@arch ~]$ 

Can anyone please explain to me WHY I keep getting this error? I tried running the command as root, and same thing: inconclusive.

I've scoured the Arch BBS, but all I could find are threads where the person shafted Epiphany in favour of another browser. I'm not a fan of Firefox or Chromium, and I'm not willing to switch browsers anytime soon. So, any fixes?

Re: NSPluginWrapper Issues with Epiphany.

I haved the same issue and I also a fun of Epiphany... so I have emailed a guy from gnome support and fortunately we have solved!
All that you have to do is installing on your arch linux x64 this package from AUR:
lib32-flashplugin

I've used aurget to compile it because i have problem with dependecies...

Installed lib32-flashplugin pacman ask to remove the pkg flashplugin... so remove it. then use nswrapper -v -n -a -i
reboot Epiphany
