acroread on Linux is a shell-script which performs several tests before starting the actual reader.
One of these is a test for the libgtk version
It only tests for minor versions up to
/usr/lib/libgtk-x11-2.0.so.0.900.*
libgtk has progressed to at least /usr/lib/libgtk-x11-2.0.so.0.1000.4
acroread thus loops around this test and never progresses to
starting the actual reader process..
here is a quick fix:
# diff -u acroread.orig acroread
--- acroread.orig 2006-12-04 16:46:51.000000000 +0800
+++ acroread 2006-12-04 16:46:40.000000000 +0800
