After reading your email, I tried installing Acrobat Reader 9.5.5 on a
fresh SL 7 system and the only problem I encountered was that the
depreciated pangox libraries are no longer included with the pango
package. I compiled the library from source and once I ensured all the
dependencies were met, I had no issue starting up acroread.

Can you actually use it to view a pdf?
Does the "Help, About Adobe Reader 9" menu item work?

For me, although just plain "acroread" works, either of the above
actions cause it to crash (in compute_face in libcairo).

(I cheated and just copied libpangox from SL6...


I used yum to erase and install acroread:

between the erase and install, I verified that /usr/bin/acroread hadbeen removed, but it is present again after the install.
