No, it isn't. The referenced link says that it is no longer supported by
Chrome, but that doesn't mean flashplugin-installer is dead. The plugin
works with firefox; the flashplugin-installer package successfully downloads
the file and the warning message mentioned in this bug report is just a
warning.
