You are asking the GNU coreutils bug mailing list for help with installing Adobe acroread. Surely you know that we are a group devoted to free software and Adobe acroread is very non-free software? (See this reference[1].) The equivalent of driving a Chevrolet car to a Ford plant and asking for help! And besides the coreutils is completely different and unrelated to the Adobe software. As if we made cars and you brought us your boat! I recommend looking into the 'xpdf' program. It is much faster than acroread and runs on a larger variety of architectures. Xpdf is free software released under the GPL. http://www.foolabs.com/xpdf/ As to your original question, if you still want to install acroread then following the directions that came with the original Adobe files should install it okay. If you have trouble beyond that then you would need to debug the problem. This reference[2] should help. SuSE maintains their own packaging of acroread. Installing the SuSE package would be the easiest solution for you and most likely to work with your SuSE installation. I recommend you search the SuSE site and install their package since you are running a SuSE system.
