[EDIT - yaourt and archey now installed, thanks]
I am running Arch 2.6.34 with GNOME desktop. When I type the command sudo pacman -S flashplugin or sudo pacman -S archey it tells me that it cannot find the package.
I had this problem previously when I was trying arch in a VM, and I couldn't figure out what I had missed. I have everything else properly installed and working fine, it's just these two packages I've come across that I cannot locate. I'm guessing there's probably more packages that I just haven't run into yet that wouldn't work either.

Have you searched AUR?

That's because archey is in the AUR. You can use yaourt to install packages from the aur similar to how you're trying, read the wikis and check it out.

Ok, thanks, I had forgotten about that.
When do they suspect they'll fix the flashplugin bug/vulnerability? And what is recommended to do until then as far as flash playback goes?

1) It is fixed in 32bit, but not for 64 - from the arch announcement:
http://labs.adobe.com/technologies/flas … 64bit.html
2) Either stop using flash, use the old plugin with flashblock, or install 32bit Flash with nspluginwrapper.
