To cover all the bases, I have it in

/home/curty/.mozilla/plugins/libflashplayer.so
/usr/lib/firefox/plugins/libflashplayer.so
/usr/lib/mozilla/plugins/libflashplayer.so

The mozilla help site says to put it in

https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/install-flash-plugin-view-videos-animations-games?cache=no

usr/lib/mozilla/plugins 

It might search there first and then in the user's home directory, or
vice-versa. 

It's working now; I could rename the files one by one, or two by two,
leaving only one libflashplayer.so, and see at which point I broke my
flash, if Gene's really interested in knowing what no one knows, which
is a pretty big affair if you ask me.
