[Novalug] Flash where?

 	I finally took a deep breath and downloaded Flash (in the 
form of flash-plugin-9.0.31.0-release.i386.rpm) -- to /home/btth, 
where I did rpm -ivh on it as root.

 	But the site and browser I decided to tolerate it on show 
no change. My guess is that it should have been put into some 
other directory first. How do I tell where?

 	I want to risk Epiphany and maybe Seamonkey with it; I'd 
prefer *not* to have it where any other browser, including Galeon 
and Firefox, but especially not Opera, can find it. I don't run 
into three things a year that I'm willing to permit to do moving 
images, much less sound, both of which I happen to detest; so why 
risk good browsers?
