Acrobat 7
Tarball installs fine but one must change /usr/bin/acroread to point to the
installed path.
Making a .deb out of the rpm using alien will not work because of the existing
acroread-debian-files which includes the above. Attempts to "force" in dpkg
had the net result of zeroing out that file so had to reinstall the existing
acroread5.10 packages and manually edit the /usr/bin/acroread (so why not
just do that in the first place :-)? )
Installing the plugins works fine for mozilla/plugins but not for
netscape/plugins-C6 because the script looks for plugins. Easy enough to
replace the existing symlink.
Might need to pin things down until acrobat 7 is packaged for debian.
Anyway, nice new look. Hopefully, printing (more complex jobs) will work once
again.
