After reading your email, I tried installing Acrobat Reader 9.5.5 on a
fresh SL 7 system and the only problem I encountered was that the
depreciated pangox libraries are no longer included with the pango
package. I compiled the library from source and once I ensured all the
dependencies were met, I had no issue starting up acroread.

In your case, the repository you added provides a suitable
pangox-compat package, so as you seem to describe, yum should have
automatically taken care of the dependency resolution.

Can you post the output you receive when you try running "acroread" in
a terminal?
