Hi

I really don't know what upgrade on my pclinuxos (later I found this is a common issue on many linux distros) caused the issue with my adobe acrobat reader. This error may eventually crashes mozilla-firefox (may because of acrobat reader integration with firefox). Following is the fix.

[root@dhcppc0 ~]# which acroread
/usr/bin/acroread
[root@dhcppc0 ~]# vi /usr/bin/acroread

Go to line 417,
echo $mfile| sed 's/libgtk-x11-\([0-9]*\).0.so.0.\([0-9]\)00.\([0-9]*\)\|\(.*\)/\1\2\3/g'

In this line, after second [0-9] add a "*". ( ie, [0-9]* ).

The final output look like the following.

echo $mfile| sed 's/libgtk-x11-\([0-9]*\).0.so.0.\([0-9]*\)00.\([0-9]*\)\|\(.*\)/\1\2\3/g'

Hope this information helps you.

Thanks

Anil
