I'm running Adobe AIR 2.6 on 64-bit Linux Mint 11 (based on Ubuntu 11.04).
When trying to install AIR apps, I keep running into an Error #1. This is intermittent, but quite frequent. In other words, some .air files install just fine (like Tweetdeck), but most end up with the error and won't install. Here is the output of the Install.log file from one app (specifically the Comcast CallerID app), which worked fine on an older installation of Linux, but doesn't now:

Any ideas what could be causing this error and how to fix it? Thanks!
