Adobe Air has stopped support for Linux, so you'll be using the old version 2.6. After downloading from their website, you just change the permissions for that installer:
$sudo chmod +x AdobeAIRInstaller.bin
To install:
$sudo ./AdobeAIRInstaller.bin
An error will occur about gnome keyring, to fix this, you just have to create a symbolic link to the /usr/lib/:
$sudo ln -s /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/libgnome-keyring.so.0 /usr/lib/libgnome-keyring.so.0
$sudo ln -s /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/libgnome-keyring.so.0.2.0 /usr/lib/libgnome-keyring.so.0.2.0
Then try to install Adobe Air again, and it will work.
Note: Don't forget to remove the links you've created:
$sudo rm /usr/lib/libgnome-keyring.so.0
$sudo rm /usr/lib/libgnome-keyring.so.0.2.0
That's it!

That worked perfectly, thank you very much!
I tried this but I get an error as follows:
/tmp/air.9L7KUP/setup: error while loading shared libraries: libgtk-x11-2.0.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
I followed your steps but can't get past this. Any thoughts?
