Yum does install  AdbeRdr9.5.5-1_i486linux_enu.rpm but when I run the command acroread the Adobereader won't start and nothing shows in /var/log/messages.

I think it's because the name of the command is now changed. No longer "acroread" but "AdobeReader." Note: that's case-sensitive.

"Acrobat" is now reserved for the PDF editor.

And by the way: the latest version is more than a year old.

Where can we find a side-by-side feature table for Adobe Reader v. Okular, or whatever the favored PDF viewer is for Gnome?

See if your distro has atril available. It's quite superior to okular. However, nothing is altogether as good as adobe. Those guys invented pdfs.

​Instead, install evince pdf reader. it is in the Fedora repos.
