Bug Description

I think the transition is done. It's in 16.04-19.10 as a transitional package.

Found this because it made this list: https://discourse.ubuntu.com/t/community-process-for-32-bit-compatibility/12598

I don't want anyone thinking that 32-bit Flash is supported on Linux.

Happy to make a debdiff (or if you point me at where the code is - the code here seems out of date) to make a PR.

Can we drop all the flash packages before focal becomes 20.04 LTS? I don't think we should have flash in the release at all if we know it won't be supportable after a few months.

Thanks
