Thanks for testing the patch, that was quicker than I expected. :)

libcap.so.1.10 installed manually. "
I noticed that I had installed manually a 32-bit version of libcap earlier (I 
built libflashsupport on gutsy using almost the same way as now), so indeed it 
has to be added to ia32-libs first.
I used libflashsupport on my 64-bit gutsy almost since gutsy was released, so 
my patch shouldn't create any major stability problems. This bug is a major one 
for AMD64 users, so it should be resolved before hardy release.

Please also note that the patch modifies the build rules so that it probably 
won't build on i386 anymore. A simple way to fix this would be AFAIK to create 
separate libflashsupport and lib32flashsupport packages from the same source 
package. But the package uses cdbs, which seems to not support building two 
different packages with different build options from the same source.
If I have some spare time, I'll rewrite the build rules to build both 32-bit 
and 64-bit packages. Then we only need libcap in ia32-libs and a solution to 
the symlinks issue when building the package.
