Will have to try that one myself as I hadn't yet included a reader in
my latest debooststrap install. I only use one line in my
/etc/apt/sources.list, and it's available = good deal! :)

Whenever looking for new software, there's also the option of
attempting a search via our package managers. I only use apt for mine
so, for this software need, I perform queries like:

apt-cache search pdf viewer

OR

apt-cache search pdf reader

For the widest *_CHOICES_*, try several different creative keyword
variations because those searches feed off descriptions and such that
developers have consciously written into their packages.

Good luck!
