I added the repo as above but I get the following error:

(tigger pts9) # yum --enablerepo=macromedia install flash-plugin
Deprecated constant TYPE_INTERFACE during plugin initialization.
Please use TYPE_INTERACTIVE instead.
Loading "installonlyn" plugin


Error getting repository data for macromedia, repository not found
(tigger pts9) #

In addition if I goto http://macromedia.rediris.es/rpm/ I get a 404.

Anyone else seeing this??
