I just wanted to confirm the error is only the first error given, the
missing lib. Feel free to close it with that argument.

ia32-libs is replaced by ia32-apt-get in sid.

The only thing I think you can do with this bug report is to actualy
fail when you see a missing lib instead of trying to install the
plugin anyway. That way only the first error about the missing lib
would be shown.

FYI, with the next upload of flashplugin-nonfree (>= 2.6.1) and
ia32-apt-get (>= 19) there will be a ia32-flashplugin-nonfree (32bit)
and flashplugin-nonfree (64bit) available. The former, using
nspluginwrapper, works out of the box now. No missing libs for the
user to fix or anything.
