Hi
I have just installed the latest available file from ADOBE page:
AdbeRdr9.5.1-1_i486linux_enu.bin

Installation went well, but when I execute "acroread" I get an error:
/opt/Adobe/Reader9/Reader/intellinux/bin/acroread: error while loading shared libraries: libgdk_pixbuf_xlib-2.0.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

I have this file here:
libgdk_pixbuf_xlib-2.0.so.0

here command and result:
"uname -r" shows "2.6.32-5-amd64"

I am using Debian 6.0.4 Squeeze

What can i do in order to make Adobe working fine ?
I do not see any other version of Adobe of their page.

regards
Rafal

The problem is that you installed the 32 bit version of Acrobat Reader on a 64 bit OS. The needed library is installed in a 64 bit version, but the application is asking for the 32 bit version. You can solve that problem with installing the 32 bit version of that library:

Add the debian-multimedia.org repo to your sources.list
apt-get update
apt-get install acroread



$ apt-cache policy acroread
acroread:
Installed: 9.5.1-0.1
Candidate: 9.5.1-0.1

evince is installed by default for fedora.

And that has to do with the Op how?

Yes !
This solved my issue ;-)


Thanks a lot

i was suggesting an alternative to the acrobat pdf reader created by adobe (in my opinion evince is less bloated and more streamlined than acrobat).

I'm using Squeeze on AMD64, with multimedia enabled, and the ia32 libs installed.
I do not find acroread in the repos.
aptitude search acroread
gives me nothing found.

I have evince and pdfedit, so probably I have everything I need, but a client wants me to "add notes to a pdf file",
and I'm not certain if pdfedit's "add text" is what they want/need, and/or if Adobe's product (add comment) would resolve this matter.
I have the acroread installed on a 32bit laptop with peppermint os (mint/ubu remixed for netbooks and laptops), but I'd much rather work on my amd64 desktop workhorse.

Indeed, evince is what I use most for reading pdf files, and it is good stuff.
It might be that the OP needs something that evince (or epdfviewer or xpdf or any of the other excellent FLOSS alternatives) doesn't offer, however.
