I just found out there is an adobe yum repo where you can keep the

Yup. Works well. Note two different repos exist for 32-bit stuff (adobe
reader, 32-bit flash) and 64-bit stuff (flash-plugin).
Might not want to enable their repo on 100+ systems, just a few you monitor,
then download to a local repo and distribute from there at 'appropriate'
times. Oops, that might be inappropriate redistribution and against their
terms.
I just do a nightly diff of the output of running:
yum -d0 --disablerepo='*' --enablerepo=adobe makecache
yum -d0 --disablerepo='*' --enablerepo=adobe info flash-plugin AdobeReader_enu
adobeair
not that adobeeair is there any more... Of course I have comleted the
Adobe forms and have permission to allow local redistribution.
