Some plugins of Acrobat 7 need libstdc++.so.5, i.e. the standard c++

Renaming the plugins directory worked.  I may consider installing 
libstdc++.so.5 in the future, but I've got better things to do right now.

Thanks.

evince, a relatively new pdf/ps document viewer, has a toc and even a
thumbnail sidebar for sure. It's based on xpdf resp. the fork poppler.

I'm almost positive I remember this.
It depends on the pdf. If the document has a TOC, xpdf will display it in a panel on 
the left.

Not to argue at all, but for the sake of my memory, I remember Xpdf
uses a navigation TOC on the left side just like Adobe does. I would
have to reboot into a different partition on the computer I'm on
right now to get at Xpdf, but are you certain there's not a setup
option that allows this navigation TOC on the left side?

I'm almost positive I remember this.

Yes, I know, but I was just trying it out.  Also acroread5 provides some 
additional functionaliy over xpdf or gsview.  It adds a nice toc on the 
left side for navigating long documents.

Just to try it out, I donloaded a copy of Acrobat Reader 7 for Linux and 
installed it.  On my LFS 6.1 testing system it flashes the splash screen 
and exits without any error messages of any kind.

ldd on the binary does not show any missing libraries and checking for 
permission problems I ran as root and got the same results.

Has anyone else tried this out?

Wrong list?
Yup.  Sorry.
