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version of Firefox was out of date, but that was only a warning.


Go to about:plugins in Firefox, if the displayed version of Adobe
Flash isn't *.440, try deleting
~/.mozilla/firefox/PROFILE_NAME/pluginreg.dat and refresh
about:plugins or restart Firefox.

I've hit a similar issue recently on a different website.

I just installed the 64 bit rpm for version 442 of flash I downloaded from Adobe's website, put a symlink into /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins (the upstream version of 64 bit firefox looks for its plugins in /usr/lib) to where the rpm placed the plugin, remove pluginreg.dat, started firefox and issued about:plugins which firefox says it is picking up from /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins but it says the version is 11.2.202.310 still, why is this occurring?
