Testing is squeeze now, sid always the name for unstable.

It appears that flashplugin-nonfree-extrasound is still in testing,
but  flashplugin-nonfree is not. I don't know why that would be,
but it is still present in sid. You can download it from here:
 http://packages.debian.org/sid/flashplugin-nonfree

At the bottom, select i386 if you are 32-bit, amd64 if you are
using 64-bit. Then select any mirror and download the deb.
As root, use dkpk -i (path/to/download/)flashplugin-nonfree_2.5_i386.deb
to install.
