Guide on Install (Update/Uninstall) pepper-flash-debug on Arch-Based Linux (Manjaro/Parabola)
According to pepper-flash-debug ‘s gist, it’s «Adobe Flash Player debugger PPAPI». To install and update this package ( pepper-flash-debug ) from AUR (Arch User Repository) on Arch Linux, Manjaro, EndeavourOS, Garuda, RebornOS and Anarchy is relatively uncomplicated.

Table of Contents
Install link
There are two typical methods to install pepper-flash-debug from AUR. pacman is the way to go if you’re a seasoned Linux user and know the concept of how packages are built. Otherwise, yay is a convenient alternative to install packages without the hassle of reviewing PKGBUILD and build packages with makepkg yourself.
Install with pacman (Default Package Manager) link
sudo pacman -S --needed git && git clone https://aur.archlinux.org/pepper-flash-debug.git && cd pepper-flash-debug && makepkg -si
- Install git if required (not installed before).
- clone the package’s git repository from AUR.
- cd into the directory of the repository.
- Use makepkg to build the package, then install it with pacman .
Install with yay (Beginner Friendly) link
yay -S pepper-flash-debug
Update link
Just like installing AUR packages, updating them is fairly the same. All you have to do is pull it from source then re-build it. Even so, it is still recommended to upgrade your whole system first with sudo pacman -Syu before updating any packages to avoid breaking your system, since Arch is a rolling-release Linux distribution.
Update with pacman (Default Package Manager) link
git pull && makepkg -si
- pull from the package’s git repository.
- Build the package with makepkg . Also, it will automatically be updated with pacman afterwards.
Update with yay (Beginner Friendly) link
Uninstall link
Removing packages is the simplest of these three,all you have to do is choose whether to remove the unused dependencies and the configuration files used by the package.
Remove with pacman (Default Package Manager) link
sudo pacman -R pepper-flash-debug
sudo pacman -Rs pepper-flash-debug
sudo pacman -Rns pepper-flash-debug
Remove with yay (Beginner Friendly) link
yay -R pepper-flash-debug
yay -Rs pepper-flash-debug
yay -Rns pepper-flash-debug

I meant more along the lines of using PPAPI, I want to use pepper flash, ideally but not neccessarily through chromium.
I remember I had a solution for this once after support for ppapi was cut from chromium but my idiot ass doesn’t remember how I did it.
Ketchup901 commented on 2022-08-18 20:19 (UTC)
@rabcor Yes, if you use a browser that supports NPAPI plugins (such as Waterfox), and add the site you want to use in /etc/adobe/mms.cfg like so:
SilentAutoUpdateEnable=0 AutoUpdateDisable=1 EOLUninstallDisable=1 EnableAllowList=1 AllowListUrlPattern=file:/// AllowListUrlPattern=*://example.com/ AllowListUrlPattern=*://*.4chan.org/ AllowListUrlPattern=*://*.4cdn.org/ AllowListUrlPattern=*://*.github.io/

Using a web archiver is a good idea, I hadn’t considered that. I’ve updated the PKGBUILD to use the links you’ve provided.

Instead of abandoning this package completely, would you consider replacing the download links from the Wayback Machine?
They function as drop-in replacements, the hashes match those already in the package(s) as one would expect.
If not, would you considering at passing the roll of maintainer on to someone else or orphaning the package entirely?
huupoke12 commented on 2021-03-04 14:36 (UTC)
The link is dead. I suggest trying archive.org instead. You can use Firefox ESR to use it.
neeshy commented on 2021-03-01 01:42 (UTC) (edited on 2021-03-01 19:27 (UTC) by neeshy)
The official upstream sources have been removed. Initially, Adobe had removed just the links on their main site without removing the actual files. I guess they changed their minds. I managed to backup most of the Adobe Flash 32.0.0.465 versions (I missed the Windows .exe installers) before they nuked them. Here they are (.tar.gz): http://0x0.st/-Kgg.gz
I won’t be updating the PKGBUILD to use this link, because I’ve always been suspicious of build scripts that use unofficial sources. You’ll have to manually place the relevant files in the same directory as the PKGBUILD.
Also, keep in mind that the last version of Firefox which is compatible with flashplayer is 84.0.2.
