I am now attempting to do some CI testing with the FlexUnit Ant task on the Linux platform, specifically RHEL 6 (x64). I am finding the installation of the Linux debug stand-alone player not as straight-forward as I had hoped. I finally found using google that additional packages are required:

http://install-manual.blogspot.com/2011/01/run-linux-flash-player-projector-in.html
That is fine (even though the blog post lists a different set of packages than Adobe does). I am wondering about the "bitness" of the sa linux player package: is it 32-bit or 64 bit? I am wondering if I should be installing 32 bit versions of the dependent packages, or using the 64 bit ones that I presume the package manager is going to find.
Also, a colleague told me that he thought the Flash player was 32 bit and that it had to be used in conjunction with 32 bit Java on Linux. Could anyone comment on this?
Thanks,
Trevor
