 RPMforge provides already the (beta) 64bit flash-plugin, so there's no

 32bit.

Hmm. Unless I am using an out of date mirror RPMforge has
flash-plugin.x86_64      11.0.1.129-0.1.el6.rf      rpmforge

whereas the adobe-linux-i386 repo has
flash-plugin.i386        11.0.1.152-release         @adobe-linux-i386
(Build Date: Sat 24 Sep 2011 02:45:27 AM BST).

So, why would one replace a 64bit flash-plugin with a 32bit one ?

Not so much that I want to - rather that the 32 bit adobe repo was
already enabled from when the machine was running SL5 and I have
only now looked for the adobe-linux-x86_64 repo.

My real point was that the rpmforge plugin is presumably out of
date if the adobe repo has a newer plugin with a higher release number.
