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?

If the rpm being installed is the one supplied by Adobe, the command provided is "acroread". On my system the rpm installed its files into /opt/Adobe, check that the acroread file is executable and that you have read/write access to all files/folders within that path. I had an issue with acroread, whereby when I ran it, it produced a dialog complaining of a file read error and wouldn't run, I also received the same error when I clicked on widgets to add them to my development project in Windowbuilder within Eclipse. This error turned out to be a corrupt profile in ~/.adobe/Acrobat which, when I deleted that directory, and acrobat recreated it resolved my problems.
