During installation, you may be asked to confirm the installation telling that the source is untrusted because it doesn’t have standard maintainer or something like that. Just ignore it and hit the Yes Button. What all it means is that in future we won’t be able to update it directly as other packages in Ubuntu but we’ll need to upgrade it ourselves in case new packages arrive in the market 😀

After you successfully Install the adobe air, Its time to actually install the TweetDeck.
