I'm afraid we'll need to wait for Adobe to built next release for
this to be fixed (they have been notified about, Red Hat too).

... probably on next round of flash security updates .. which probably means within two weeks ..

Cheers

Hello,

the  last  update of flash-plugin (11.2.202.540-release.x86_64)  from
adobe    repo    does    not   work  any    longer    with    firefox
(38.3.0-2.el5_11.x86_64)

Same issue on CentOS-5 here pointing back to Adobe building for a newer
glib2 version than the one available on the old but supported RHEL-5
clones version.

On RHEL-6 clones, /lib*/libgio-2.0.so.0 is provided by
glib2-2.28.8-4.el6*, which does not exist in the glib2-2.12.3-4.el5_3.1*
provided on the RHEL-5 clones.

I found a flash-plugin-11.2.202.540-3.slc5 in slc5-extras.repo but
there is a

   Missing Dependency: libgio-2.0.so.0()(64bit)

but a :  yum --enablerepo=* provides */libgio

says : No Matches found

Do you know where could I find that ?
flash-plugin-11.2.202.540-3.slc5 changelog hinted:

* Mon Oct 19 2015 Jaroslaw Polok <[email protected]> - 11.2.202.540-3
- remove flash-player-properties binary on SLC5 (needs libgio-2.0 not
   available ...)

Alas, ldd on libflashplayer.so finds a dependancy on  libgio-2.0.so.0
on both i386 and x86_64 versions.

Unless Adobe fixes that, there is no way that we can run the
flash-plugin on RHEL-5 clones.

Just my 2 cents
