Works here on SL41 (+plus updates from upcoming 4.2) on x86_64:

At startup it gives a warning about
PPKLite.api plugin which failed to initialize

but then pdfs are displayed OK.

You can find it at:

http://linuxsoft.cern.ch/repository/slc4-i386/acroread-7.0.1-1.SL.cern.i386.html

(as this is of course a 32bit application the plugin
will not work in native 64bit firefox/mozilla browser...)


Cheers

Jarek

PS: the rpm was built on a i386 system.
