New release is

https://fpdownload.adobe.com/pub/flashplayer/pdc/26.0.0.126/flash-player-npapi-26.0.0.126-release.x86_64.rpm

the script should be updated accordingly, IMO.

Yeah, thanks Raphael. I think the reason the script stopped working is only because our version is to old. Would be awesome if someone has time to do a package request bug report on this.

I’m busy with family matters at the moment.
