Its not very smart to provide these packages here, first for legal issues 
and second someone who installs the binary version without a repository 
will never be notified about updates etc, especially for something like 
flash thats really bad.

Someone who wants to use adobe-flash-plugins should clone the repositorie, 
package it and run ./xbps-src sys-update regualarly.

Cheers
