After installing some development packages Adobe Acrobat 7.0 would not
launch for us. Click Icon nothing happens.
Launching it from the command line resulted in
expr: syntax error
The following fix was pulled from the Adobe Forums @
http://www.adobeforums.com/cgi-bin/webx/.3bc26b0d
edit /usr/Adobe/Acrobat7/bin/acroread
add an * after the ] in the second parenthesis group, so that the line
418 looks like this
echo $mfile| sed
's/libgtk-x11-\([0-9]*\).0.so.0.\([0-9]*\)00.\([0-9]*\)\|\(.*\)/\1\2\3/g'
this will ensure that all versions are picked up in a proper way
