https://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/ shows 27.0.0.183 as the current Flash version. If you don't want to give up on Flash and uninstall it altogether, I suggest that you check daily at this URL. If a new version shows up, download the ".tar.gz for linux" version, and manually replace libflashplayer.so (or whatever it's called) with the new one. Flash vulnerabilities, and updates, come so fast and furious that Portage can't keep up with them. -- Walter Dnes <waltd...@waltdnes.org> I don't run "desktop environments"; I run useful applications
