How to install acroread
Hello, I would like to know what is the recommended way to install acroread (I need Digital Signature support, and xpdf does not seems to handle that). There used to be a package in debian-unofficial, as indicated in a google-cache search in: http://www.debian-unofficial.org/packages.html but not anymore. apt-get.org gives me a couple of result but I fear they would not be supported: http://www1.apt-get.org/search.php?query=acroreadsubmit=Submit+Queryarch%5B%5D=i386arch%5B%5D=all and last but not least package in ubuntu looks like they would have a lot of support: http://packages.ubuntulinux.org/warty/text/acroread-debian-files Is anyone mixing multiverse package in his debian testing box ?

Any infomation is appreciated! If you want a private copy of acroread, one only executable by you, you may tar xzvf linux-ar-405.tar.gz (feel free to TAB for file-name completion under bash) , then cd to the directory that is created, which you'll see at the beginning of each filename as tar writes them out. ls , and read the README (however it is named). There may be an install script, or maybe you'll use it just as you've unpacked it, in which case, add that directory, or directory/bin, to your path in .bashrc. Or add a link in whatever executable directory you already have in your .bashrc to directory/acroread . If you want acroread to be usable by all those who use that platform, you ought to ask the sysadmin to install the Debian package, like Pavel says. -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] 972-729-5387 [EMAIL PROTECTED] (home phone on request) http://www.koyote.com/users/bolan RE: xmailtool http://www.koyote.com/users/bolan/xmailtool/index.html I am the ILOVEGNU signature virus.

The NORMAL way to install a package is to ask the sysadmin (the superuser). However, you can try unpacking it (try alien -- hope you have this at least), and then making an exhausting re-configuration (e.g. make it use something like /home/user/mypackage/etc instead of /etc for configuration files). Also not all packages may be installed without root permissions (I hope acroread is not one of them). Hope someone makes a better offer, Pavel
