I just tried this with the version I installed manually (from the tar.bz2 file),
and it all worked correctly, so it would appear to be an issue with the IPS
pkg...
I'm wondering if the .desktop file and/or mime-types have been correctly set up.
Have you rebooted since installing it, or maybe restarted the desktop-cache
services?
You could try doing something like the following, to figure out what the exact
command being called is (I'm sure dtrace could do this too, but I can't think of
it off hand):
$ mv /usr/bin/acroread /usr/bin/acroread-installed
$ cat > /usr/bin/acroread <<_EOF
#!/bin/sh
exec > /tmp/acroead.$$.log 2>&1
for arg in $0 $@
do
echo "'$@'"
done
exec $0-installed ${1+"$@"}
_EOF
$ chmod 755 /usr/bin/acroread
And then try again - this will output the arguments (one per line to be sure we
see how spaces are interpreted, etc.) to a log file in /tmp.
To undo, just "mv /usr/bin/acroread-installed /usr/bin/acroread".
This might give some clue as to what is happening...
