The Adobe RPM does not require libcurl.so.4:

$ rpm -qp --requires flash-plugin-10.0.12.36-release.i386.rpm
/bin/bash  
/bin/sh  
/bin/sh  
/bin/sh  
/bin/sh  
glibc >= 2.4
rpmlib(CompressedFileNames) <= 3.0.4-1
rpmlib(PayloadFilesHavePrefix) <= 4.0-1

But I'll try it without libflashsupport...

I did not use the Adobe RPM, but I am using my own RPM.  Given the above,
I don't see how installing the Adobe RPM would pull in libcurl.i386.
