That is because the compiler/glibc is from more than 4 years ago there.
But, it isn't secure now (adobe reader on linux)

It might be still usable but it isn't secure.

Well, yes, I've set Atril, which is installed by default, to be the
default app now. Thanks :-)

I'm still using acroread on CentOS6 (other computers than this C7 one)
and never had a single problem.

Support for AdobeReader on Linux ended more than 4 years ago. It would
be better to use evince, atril or okular.

[CentOS] Acroread9 crash in CentOS7

2017-08-08 Thread wwp
Hello,


I'm getting a crash with acroread on my CentOS7 (AdobeReader_enu-9.5.5-1.i486).
I install the official rpms from ftp://ftp.adobe.com/pub/adobe/reader/unix/,
tried 9.5.5, and former v9, v8, v7.

/usr/bin/acroread loads well, but when you click a menu, bang. Same if
you start acroread w/ a .pdf filename in parameter, the window opens up
then crashes.

I modified the acroread script to run the binary from within gdb, I get
this:

 Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.
 0xf5437cee in compute_face () from /lib/libcairo.so.2

Unfortunately, the system completely hangs when it happens (acroread
from gdb) and I must kill acroread from a tty, so I cannot get a more
detailed backtrace for now.

Is that something somebody here already saw?


Regards,
