I receive PDF documents with URLs that I need to click, and so I would
like to get that working in acroread8. I symlink'ed firefox into
/compat/linux/usr/local/bin, and set the preferences in acroread
accordingly. That got me from a "firefox not found" error to this,
printed out in the terminal:
libfam.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
Failed to load module: /usr/lib/gio/modules/libgiofam.so
Since I have that lib installed as a result of the linux-base port, I
assume that what is missing is something that it depends on.
Any help resolving this is welcome.
Alternatively, if I could extract the URL from the link, that'd be
awesome too. :)
I am not sure if this will help your problem, but here is my fix. I
wrote a wrapper script around /usr/local/bin/firefox:
--------------------------------------
#!/usr/local/bin/zsh -e
# Allow firefox to be executed from a Linux application such as Acrobat Reader
# 8. Acrobat Reader 9 does not appear to need this.
unset LD_LIBRARY_PATH
/usr/local/bin/firefox "${@}" &!
--------------------------------------
There is a lot more junk in mine, but this allows me to click on links
within a PDF.
