How to Install Adobe Air on Ubuntu 64-Bit
Recently I tried to install an Adobe Air program, and I ran into a problem. Adobe Air doesn't support 64-Bit Edition native. This guide will show you how to make it 64-Bit compatible. (If you are using 10.04 or older you may need to install ia32-libs first)
- Download the Adobe Air.deb file.
- Open Terminal (This can be found in "Applications > Accessories > Terminal")
- In Terminal go to the directory where you downloaded the .deb file. (By default this is ~/Downloads):
cd 'Directory of .deb file'
- Create a temporary directory:
mkdir tmp
- Extract the .deb file to the temporary directory:
dpkg-deb -x adobeair.deb tmp
- Extract the Control Files
dpkg-deb --control adobeair.deb tmp/DEBIAN
- Change the Architecture Parameter from 'i386' to 'all':
sed -i "s/i386/all" tmp/DEBIAN/control
- Repackage the .deb File
dpkg -b tmp adobeair_64.deb
- Now you may install Adobe Air by either double clicking the new .deb file (adobeair_64.deb), or entering the following into the same Terminal window
sudo dpkg -i adobeair_64.deb
