It is not that I want to use Flash, it is that some sites I use force me to use Flash. No choice.
The pipelight-plugin does Silverlight AND Flash
Try this one:

I just tried, on Leap, and it is using Flash (on FF), which has not been removed yet by updates (yet?). I'm running now another zypper dup (a thousand changes) and I'll try again.

Yes, it warns that it is outdated, but runs.
The page offers to update the plugin. Trying. It takes me to <https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/plugincheck/?utm_source=firefox-browser&utm_m edium=firefox-browser&utm_campaign=plugincheck-update>
Adobe Flash Player vulnerable Shockwave Flash 11.2 r202 11.2.202.508
Clicking on update takes to: https://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/
I have to select the appropriate version (rpm for Linux), and click download. Firefox proposes to "install/remove software (default).
YaST starts, after giving root's password.
I get a conflict. Related?

I choose "break". YaST proceeds with installation...
There is a problem, the old version was not removed automatically:
Eleanor-421:~ # rpm -qa | grep -i flash flash-plugin-11.2.202.540-release.x86_64 flash-player-gnome-11.2.202.508-1.2.x86_64 flash-player-11.2.202.508-1.2.x86_64 Eleanor-421:~ # Eleanor-421:~ # rpm --erase flash-player flash-player-gnome Eleanor-421:~ #
Refreshing Firefox plugin page now lists no flash. Maybe needs a restart. [...]. No, there is no flash plugin, something else must be needed. Probably a link.
And the media pages like http://www.atresplayer.com/directos/television/lasexta/ now fail. It proposes me to install Flash.
In ancient times we used to download the tar.gz, unpack it and copy libflashplayer.so to /usr/lib/browser-plugins or ~/.mozilla/plugins. Doesn't that work any more? -- Gertjan Lettink, a.k.a.
