Okay, so even with all the unofficial repositories you currently have enabled, 
this package is not available from any of them.  Seems very difficult to find 
a maintained Adobe Acrobat package for Debian.  Of course, dpkg, APT, etc. are 
still tracking it since you have it installed; you'll find that aptitude lists 
it as an "Obsolete" package.
