Actually, once I get it installed, it is usually safe to re-enable the
repo since I now have the fedora versions of all the packages and
I seem to only get the updates for things that are only available
from adobe from the adobe repos. The 32 bit packages I got seem to
get updated from the fedora repos OK. At least I haven't noticed
any confusion so far.
