Hi,

The lower the priority number, the higher it's priority.

So, in your case, rpmforge has a higher priority than adobe, thus it
yum-priorities will exclude the adobe version and instead choose the
rpmforge version.

If you don't want to edit your priorities, you can manually exclude the
flash-plugin from RPMforge, thus allowing the adobe version.

Add the following line to your repo (Below priority)

exclude=flash-plugin

This will exclude that specific package from RPMForge, you can use
wildcards and add additional packages if you choose.

For example, you could do:

exclude=flash*plugin clam*

etc, to add additional packages or options, and it will then choose to
get those packages from the next highest priority repository.

Hope this helps :-).

Kind Regards,
