I am having no luck installing adobe air on xubuntu 14.04 64 bit. The threads for installing it on ubuntu 12.04 don't work. I need it to read magazines from zinio.

According to the link a required package ( ia32-libs) was removed in 13.10 and the author added an old repository for 64 bit installation. I find nothing current for 32 bit installations.
