I ran into a situation with Firefox where I had an older version of the Adobe flash plugin loaded and loaded a newer one thinking it would over-write the old one. It loaded in a new location and I ended up having two of them installed
How did you install them to get more than one? I've not struck that problem. I installed the Flash player using the Adobe RPM, and update it with "yum update", along with everything else.
That's a question I wish I knew the answer to. I've suspected that it may have been drug along during and update but I'm certain. To the best of my recollection, however, I simply installed two versions from Adobe. I have also wondered if they changed to install location but I've spent no time investigating.
I should really keep better logs on that machine.
Adobe has a yum repo which works with Fedora. It's better to use this than downloading and installing the RPMs by hand.
