First of all, the flash-plugin-9.0.31-1 is not a package from RPMforge.

And secondly, this is what is in my packages (eg. for EL5):

[root at lisse flash-plugin]# rpm -qplv flash-plugin-7.0.69-1.el5.rf.i386.rpm | grep .so
-rwxr-xr-x    1 root    root          2154768 Mar  7 20:47 /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins/libflashplayer.so

[root at lisse flash-plugin]# rpm -qplv flash-plugin-9.0.31.0-1.el5.rf.i386.rpm | grep .so
-rwxr-xr-x    1 root    root          7029784 Mar  7 20:47 /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins/libflashplayer.so

Can you verify this what you see on your system ?
