Package: pepperflashplugin-nonfree
Version: 1.8.1+deb8u1
Severity: Grave
Greetings Bart,
Today (7-13-2016) I am just getting a message that the package
'pepperflashplugin-nonfree' has no installation candidate, and it won't
install. That only happens on 32-bit OS computers (with Debian 8 fully
up-to-date)
This has been confirmed in several 32-bit computers. My sources file do
include what is necessary for the package to install, including deb
http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian/ jessie main contrib non-free. Also, I have
installed this on 32-bit Debian 8 a number of times, so I believe there's
nothing wrong with what I am doing here.
Funny enough, the problem does not happen on 64-bit computers, which install
normally.
Here's the full error message:
**************************************************************
apt-get update && apt-get install pepperflashplugin-nonfree
Package pepperflashplugin-nonfree is not available, but is referred to by
another package.
This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
is only available from another source
E: Package 'pepperflashplugin-nonfree' has no installation candidate
**************************************************************
Please advise.
Cheers,
Jamil

Unfortunately this isn't really a bug (at least in Debian)
