Bug Description

I am trying to install Adobe's Flex 2 SDK package on my computer. The Adobe download button says that it is for all platform's. However when I unzip the package and try to run the exe's the debug flash player for example I get an error in my terminal window informing me that there is no suitable interpreter. I think that these exes are designed to run under windows despite the claim that the download is multi platform. I know that some people must be using this SDK under Linux, and would appreciate any help on this matter.

Many thanks

Flex SDK is MPL licensed, and rather interesting package. Wouldn't best approach be packaging anyways.. ?
