After about 30 minutes wasted trying to install avmplus I quickly discovered the fact that no one has ever come up with standard install instructions for OS X hacks and modifications.. why exactly, I have no idea.
All I know is avmplus isn’t getting installed anytime soon because I had to manually clean the horrible install attempt.
Next time I will read all the comments before attempting such an install.
From Adobe Labs:
Flex Builder Linux is a plugin-only version of the Flex Builder that you can use to build Flex applications on Linux. We wanted to get an early release out with the base Flex Builder features so you could begin to provide us with your feedback and let us know your priorities for additional features.
Sounds pretty cool, time to break out Fedora next time I get a minute.
After deciding to install some new AIR apps and get an idea of whats being developed I headed over to AOL where they are featuring a top 100 video application.
In the process of downloading it I went it to the help and noticed a link to download AIR, however what happened next surprised me.. the site is hardwired to the Windows installer eventhough I am clearly on a Mac.
If AIR is platform independent what exactly do they gain by pointing directly to an install file, not to mention the horror if Adobe changes the name.. I prefer to link to the download page and let the user choose or another option is to use the install badge.
