Adobe Flash Player 10 Installation into Firefox 3 under Fedora 9
To install flash 10 with your Firefox browser under Fedora 9 OS, simply follow the following steps.

Step One
As root, uninstall any existing adobe flash player named flash-plugin rpm package like so
# rpm -qa | grep flash-plugin | xargs rpm -e
Uninstall Fedora’s gnash and swfdec rpm packages like so
# rpm -qa | grep swfdec | xargs rpm -e
# rpm -qa | grep gnash | xargs rpm -e
Uninstalling Fedora’s mozplugger rpm is not required but can be optional. Removing mozpluggerrc would disable other browser plugins of Firefox. If you wish to uninstall mozpluggerrc rpm package, simply
# rpm -qa | grep mozpluggerrc | xargs rpm -e

Step Three
For i386 machines, download and install every rpm that you can find from this link
To install, simply
# rpm -ivh curl-7.18.2-3.fc9.i386.rpm
# rpm -ivh curl-debuginfo-7.18.2-3.fc9.i386.rpm
# rpm -ivh libcurl-7.18.2-3.fc9.i386.rpm
# rpm -ivh libcurl-devel-7.18.2-3.fc9.i386.rpm
If you have any existing rpm package simply use rpm upgrade like so
# rpm -Uvh curl-7.18.2-3.fc9.i386.rpm
# rpm -Uvh curl-debuginfo-7.18.2-3.fc9.i386.rpm
# rpm -Uvh libcurl-7.18.2-3.fc9.i386.rpm
# rpm -Uvh libcurl-devel-7.18.2-3.fc9.i386.rpm
If you your platform is not of i386 type, locate your machine’s architecture here and download those rpms located under platform folder and install it into your F9 using the same rpm command as shown recently.
If you have earlier Fedora versions, you could get libcurl rpm of your old Fedora versions here

Step Four
Now, get back to your terminal window. Ensure that curl library is within the search path
# updatedb ; locate libcurl.so.3
/usr/lib/libcurl.so.3
Ensure also that Firefox binary can be found from default path as well

# which firefox
/usr/bin/firefox

Step Five
Download Adobe Flash Player rpm plugin and install it via rpm

# wget -c http://download.macromedia.com/pub/…081108.i386.rpm


# rpm -ivh flashplayer10_install_linux_081108.i386.rpm
The above adobe flash rpm is for compiled for Fedora 9 i386 platforms, no other rpms are available for other linux platforms as of this posting.

Step Six
Go to /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins/ folder
# cd /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins/
# ls -la /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins/
and make sure you have the following lines
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 39 2008-08-20 08:40 libflashplayer.so -> /usr/lib/flash-plugin/libflashplayer.so

Step Seven
Restart your firefox browser and head on to www.youtube.com to test your latest installation of adobe flash player 10.
Congratulations, you’ve just installed Adobe Flash Player 10!
