The short answer is: yes. Alternatively, you can insert the (eventually edited) "export" lines into the appropriate files, so that the GUI runs with an environment in which the LD_PRELOAD variable is correctly set. Clicking on an icon to launch firefox should then have the same effect of using the sample "run_firefox.sh" script. At the same time, the Acrobat reader icon should work (but only if you replaced the executables with the ones obtained by compilation of the last version of source code; previous versions of my program did not correctly handle the standalone reader).
Kernel changes should not affect the workaround code; however, changes in Acrobat Reader's version and/or in the desktop manager you use, could do so.. 2011/12/21 cement_head <[email protected]> > Hmmm, do i have to call the script run_firefox.sh each time I start > firefox? > > If so, that's my error. > > -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Canonical Partner Developers, which is subscribed to acroread in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/571247 Title: acroread remains zombie, so pdfs won't be rendered anymore To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/nspluginwrapper/+bug/571247/+subscriptions _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~canonical-partner-dev Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~canonical-partner-dev More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
