Adobe Flash use to work on my amd64 box, but after the last upgrade it
stopped working. When I visit sites that use it I'm told that Adobe
Flash is not installed or to download the plugin.
In my /etc/make.conf I had to change ACCEPT_LICENSE to
ACCEPT_LICENSE="AdobeFlash-10.1" and in /etc/portage/package.keywords I
removed www-plugins/adobe-flash ~amd64 since it wasn't needed anymore.
The following is what's installed.
# emerge --search @www-plugins/adobe-flash
Searching...
[ Results for search key : www-plugins/adobe-flash ]
[ Applications found : 1 ]
* www-plugins/adobe-flash
Latest version available: 10.1.53.64
Latest version installed: 10.1.53.64
Size of files: 4,643 kB
Homepage: http://www.adobe.com/
Description: Adobe Flash Player
License: AdobeFlash-10.1
Thanks,

Read the fine installation notes, which should have been printed after you
emerged it:
Adobe has released 10.1 in only a 32-bit version and upgrading
is required to close a major security vulnerability:
http://bugs.gentoo.org/322855
Furthermore, there are stability problems when running 10.1 in a
64-bit browser with nspluginwrapper. The current recommended
configuration is to use a 32-bit browser such as
www-client/firefox-bin:

Or just reinstall nsplugginwrapper and restart your FF. That's what I did
(search this list for thread titled: www-plugins/adobe-flash-10.1.53.64 won't
play in FF & Konqueror).
HTH.
