Does anyone have Acrobat Reader running on SL5?
I have tried AdobeReader_enu-7.0.5-1 which for some reason has 
/usr/bin/acroread an empty file. I checked what it was on CentOS4 and 
it's a symlink to /usr/local/Adobe/Acrobat7.0/bin/acroread so I made it 
a symlink on SL5.

Then it loops on this:
++ sed 
's/libgtk-x11-\([0-9]*\).0.so.0.\([0-9]\)00.\([0-9]*\)\|\(.*\)/\1\2\3/g'
++ return 0
+ version=
+ '[' 0 -ne 0 ']'
++ expr length
expr: syntax error
+ len_version=
++ expr substr 2400000000000 1
expr: syntax error
+ base_version=
++ expr length

I couldn't figure what it should do, so I checked for a newer version.
AdobeReader_enu-7.0.9-1.i386.rpm is available, but it's going to take 
another 2-3 hours to get through the modem, so I installed it and copied 
/usr/local/Adobe/Acrobat7.0/bin/acroread and then edited it to fix the 
version.

It loops too, so I'm not optimistic.

Has anyone done better?

Does anything else read encrypted PDF files?
