I can just agree. Still, it's the only solution to view a lot of copyrighted
content out there. We all want HTML5 instead, but the practical alternative for
copyrighted videos is often Silverlight (Netflix!), worse from a Linux
perspective.

So yes, IMHO flash in needed. And since it's needed it makes sense to package
it (I actually asked Simone to make this request).

As for the other issues, it will be handled in due time. The parallel
i686/x86_64 installation will probably need an lpf update. 

Currently, we try to get skype and spotify the complete way before we push any
more packages. The bottleneck is a badly required update to lpf, currently in
updates-testing. Karma welcome!
