Which repo are you using ?
I'm on SL6 and both my existing adobe repo and the repo in the RPM package
https://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/download/?installer=Flash_Player_11.2_for_other_Linux_(YUM)_64-bit&standalone=1
(with baseurl=http://linuxdownload.adobe.com/linux/x86_64/ )
both still show version "11.2.202.616-release".
However on the page
https://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/
if I select ".rpm for other linux", I do get
flash-plugin-11.2.202.621-release.x86_64.rpm
The link appears to be
https://fpdownload.adobe.com/get/flashplayer/pdc/11.2.202.621/flash-plugin-11.2.202.621-release.x86_64.rpm
Looks like Adobe have released the new rpm but not yet updated their yum
repo.
Thanks! I probably won't use it, but, in SL7.2
$ cat /etc/yum.repos.d/adobe-linux-x86_64.repo
