In order to get Adobe AIR running on a 64-bit version of Ubuntu (may work with other distros – YMMV. I’ve tested this on 9.10 and 10.04), perform the following steps:

• cd Downloads
• sudo apt-get install -y ia32-libs lib32nss-mdns lib32asound2 lib32gcc1 lib32ncurses5 lib32stdc++6 lib32z1 libc6 libc6-i386 lib32nss-mdns libcanberra-gtk-module
• wget http://downloads.gregkurts.com/getlibs-all.deb
• sudo dpkg -i getlibs-all.deb
• Download Adobe AIR here
• sudo getlibs ./AdobeAIRInstaller.bin
• sudo getlibs -l libgnome-keyring.so
• sudo getlibs -l libgnome-keyring.so.0
• sudo getlibs -l libgnome-keyring.so.0.1.1
• chmod +x AdobeAIRInstaller.bin
• sudo ./AdobeAIRInstaller.bin and accept the defaults.
• sudo cp /usr/lib/libadobecertstore.so /usr/lib32
• Download TweetDeck here
• /opt/Adobe\ AIR/Versions/1.0/airappinstaller ~/Downloads/TweetDeck_0_33.4.air
• Done! TweetDeck should be under your Accessories menu.
