The download link in the ebuild is invalid. If I look on macromedias page I can find the reqired package, but the location is different from the download link specified in the ebuild. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.emerge -av adobe-flash (version 10.3.183.10) 2. 3. Actual Results: Failed to get the required rpm package from macromedia.

I can also confirm this bug.
For the time being, you can use http://fpdownload.macromedia.com/get/flashplayer/pdc/10.3.183.10/flash-plugin-10.3.183.10-release.i386.rpm [1]. Drop it inside distfiles and it should work. [1] http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-p-6872344.html

It fails on digest verification. I'll look for help in forums though.

Instead of putting the rpm in distfiles/ directory I edited the ebuild to show new link. :-p Hence the digest verification error. After resyncing I was able to install flash. Thanks.
I get the same. Perhaps it's time to stabilise adobe-flash-11.0.1.152.

I have temporarily patched this ebuild for now since Adobe moved the URI. Also the latest version should be going stable soon, and everyone should upgrade when it does (See security bug #390149 for details): =www-plugins/adobe-flash-11.1.102.55
