1. It is available for all supported Ubuntu releases. http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?suite=yakkety&searchon=names&keywords=flashplugin-installer https://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/otherversions/ 2. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adobe_Flash_Player#Desktop_platforms Why do you want to install such an old and useless version of flash player? For what purpose? If you seriously will still use Flash crap, something nobody should do, then do yourself a favour and use Chrome. https://chromium.googlesource.com/chromium/src/+/master/docs/chromium_browser_vs_google_chrome.md Usually HTML5 should do the job, only crap requires a dead dino. It's a PITA that flash isn't completely dead, just a living dead.
