Public bug reported: The acroread package which provides Adobe Acrobat is not in the Feisty multiverse repository, apparently because of a change in the license from Adobe.
However IMO, there should still be a way of very easily installing this software, in a manner similar to that used to install 'restricted' drivers. Acrobat Reader is essential for people using desktop linux, as in a professional setting it is the only option for reliably viewing all PDFs. For people wondering how to install it under Feisty and who are happy with a little command line trickery, you can follow the instructions here: http://medibuntu.sos-sts.com/repository.php ** Affects: Ubuntu Importance: Undecided Status: Unconfirmed -- Adobe Acrobat reader not available in Feisty https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/107434 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
