The package "flashplugin-nonfree" in Stable only supports i386, not
amd64.  The package in Testing supports both i386 and amd64.  The
package at backports.org supports i386 and can support amd64 if someone
backports the amd64 specific dependencies.  How to backport:
http://backports.org/dokuwiki/doku.php?id=contribute

SECURITY: Users of flashplugin-nonfree 9.0.31.0.1 or older should
remove /usr/lib/flashplugin-nonfree/libflashplayer.so at once.  See
http://bugs.debian.org/432755 for details.
