Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: acroread

While I know Adobe does only release a i386 version of Adobe Reader, there are 
examples of Adobe Reader packages for amd64, such as Medibuntu ([1]) or Debian 
multimedia ([2]).
The support for amd64 is really important, in particular when the i386 package 
is correctly working with 32bit compatibility libraries - as in this case.

Is it possible to have a amd64 package of Adobe Reader in Canonical
Partners repository, at least for Jaunty Jackalope?
