That approach for installing the Flash player is about the worst way to
manage it.  You'll have to manually handle all updates, and Flash is a
nasty piece of work that you really should keep up to date, so that you
don't suffer an exploit.  You've got to know when an update is
available, or keep on checking for one yourself.

On the other hand, if you'd installed the appropriate yum repo for your
type of computer (32-bit or 64-bit), then any time you do a "yum update"
to update all the software on your computer, then *all* the software
gets the lastest versions that are available to install.  The same
applies for when updates are triggered by a GUI telling you that updates
are available.
