Hi,
since Adobe seems to have officially commited to support 64 Bit it would be great if this version could end up in openSUSE 12.1. http://labs.adobe.com/downloads/flashplayer11.html
This would not only fix the nspluginwrapper issues but also save quite some disk space and download traffic, since nearly no 32 bit libs would be needed anymore in a default installation.
I know that this is still a Beta, but it is not the first, Flash Player 11 will be released eventually and it works quite stable for many people. And Flash is updated anyway after distribution releases so there shouldn't really be a problem releasing a Beta version. And if it is integrated soon in Factory there will be even more testing.
Flash Player 11 also has a Gnome and KDE (I haven't tested it but there are files in the tarball for it) configuration plugin which might come in handy too.
Regards Tim The Adobe Flash Player is now on Beta 2. Hopefully, we'll have a final release by the end of 2011.
A number of users in home: have built additional rpms for KDE4 and GNOME.

(To everyone): this is not allowed by the terms of the OBS, please don't do this.

The flash-player source is closed and third-party distribution is not in general allowed by Adobe.
IANAL but uploading it to the OBS could make SUSE face consequences for distribution without permission. If you must, build nosrc rpm's in the style of X11:Drivers:Video and have people build them themselves.
As I understand it, uploading binary blobs without source available is not allowed on the OBS period, besides any legal issues, it's the not the purpose of the OBS -- it's supposed to provide repeatable builds with a trusted and inspectable source. Simply packaging binary blobs defeats that.
The only non-free packages allowed are in https://build.opensuse.org/project/packages?project=openSUSE%3AFactory%3ANon... (and similar for previous releases)
As for the original issue, hopefully we'll get a updated flash-player in the SUSE nonoss repo for 12.1, perhaps file a bug against the current flash-player asking for an upgrade.
