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?

Hi,
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.
regards,
Steve
Forget all about adobe pdf readers
Run
yum -y install evince
and be done with it.
On my machine:
yum list evince
Installed Packages
evince.x86_64 3.10.3-1.fc20 @fedora
My problem is that when I get on to the Boy Scouts of America BSA all
their forms are in pdf and they require AdobeReader .
I went to the Boy Scouts of America website using Chrome...and all
their PDF's loaded and displayed properly in Chromes built-in PDF reader.
