For reading and printing PDF files, I've almost always found xpdf
sufficient. It's DFSG-free (acroread really isn't); you can install
it with 'aptitude install xpdf', etc.
The only thing you really need Adobe's software for apparently is
filling in fill-in PDF forms. These seem to be pretty rare in my
experience, though. There might have been a .deb package for acroread
in Debian at one point, and if it's still in stable, you can probably
find it by normal means. But there likely isn't due to licensing
constraints.
