I tried installing google-chrome, but I get

# nix-env -i google-chrome-55.0.2883.87
warning: there are multiple derivations named ‘google-chrome-55.0.2883.87’;
using the first one
installing ‘google-chrome-55.0.2883.87’
error: No Chrome plugins are available for your architecture.
(use ‘--show-trace’ to show detailed location information)

I am on i686.

Maybe that's the same reason it doesn't work right now.

What is really strange though: Chromium claims that everything related to
flash was found and is working (see my OP), but still on web pages with
flash is says "flash not found".

Thank you,
Tilo
