Chrome comes bundled with Flash now… Great, but how do I install the Flash debug player?

Disable the bundled plugin on about:plugins and then install the debug version.

EDIT: be sure to click on "[+] Details", and only disable the version of Flash that is based on the Chrome directory (the 'built-in' one). (Thanks @zeh for that additional hint in your comment)
