Re: Adobe not providing linux flash updates

Is mentioning third party repositories okay on the users list?

Anyway, AFAICS, you don't need to install Chrome or Chromium to get Pepper Flash; the RPM for it doesn't seem to have Chromium as a requirement.  Obviously, if you install Google's copy of Chrome, then you get Pepper Flash with it...

You could grab the Fresh Player Plugin as well, which allows Firefox to use Chrome's Pepper Flash plugin (which is up to date).
I haven't heard of that before, where would I find it? Am I also correct in assuming that for the usage of Chrome's plugin (which I also wasn't aware of because I thought flash support was built in to chrome) that Chrome must also be installed?

    On this F21 system I am using:

    adobe-linux-x86_64.repo

    which has in it:

    baseurl=http://linuxdownload.adobe.com/linux/x86_64/

    yum.log shows:

    Jan 19 18:08:31 Updated: flash-plugin-11.2.202.429-release.x86_64
    Jan 26 08:51:24 Updated: flash-plugin-11.2.202.440-release.x86_64

    So supposedly I am current to Jan 26.  But cnn is not a happy
    camper.  There have been a couple other sites complaining as well.
    Even one that said my version of Firefox was out of date, but that
    was only a warning.
