It's in this thread. Link I found contains messages from 2 people who
found fault with my original reply to the OP. I didn't say I was being
chastised, I said berated, which I define as scolded.
Mike McCarty claims that I am doing the chastising. We already know he
doesn't like Unix or Debian, we don't know which, and Hugo Vanwoerkom
who thinks this list is mediocre at helping people.
It appears that both of them think I was not being helpful and stated it
in not so polite terms.
Here's the link:

I am just trying to be helpful, and when someone complains about a bug
in software that doesn't comply with the dfsg, I suggested that they try
supported software or take their problem upstream. I don't see a
problem with my answer.
Since the original post, we have discussed the bloat of acroread and the
alternative pdf viewers, and never once did I think this was off topic
to this mailing list. I still don't.
