[ale] adobe acrobat reader for Linux is no more?

[Jim Kinney]

That it is. Still has dependency issues with libpangox being the hard one.
Pango has "moved on" and even the pango-compat install lacks the
libpangox-1.0.so.0 that answers to the acroread binary correctly.

Like most things adobe, they've dropped support for Linux. The current
version of reader is 11. The last Linux version was 9.5.5 and that seems to
be about 6 years ago.

Every time you stop a school, you will have to build a jail. What you gain
at one end you lose at the other. It's like feeding a dog on his own tail.
It won't fatten the dog.
