As Dolske pointed out in bug 869191, the plugin finder service fails to offer Linux x86_64 clients a link to download a flash installer because the regex assumes we only support 32-bit linux. Fortunately Adobe now offers a 64-bit plugin. Either way, the blank result from the extremely common prompt to install flash is a poor user experience. I suggest we link to adobe for 64-bit linux systems as well.
