I installed Adobe Reader 9.5.1, but it will not run.
The output I get from the CLI is:
$ acroread
/opt/Adobe/Reader9/Reader/intellinux/bin/acroread: error while loading
shared libraries: libxml2.so.2: cannot open shared object file: No
such file or directory
I checked in Synaptic and libxml2 is installed.
I am running Ubuntu Studio 12.04
So why is my Adobe Reader not working? I tried uninstalling it,
downloading it again from the Adobe site, and reinstalling, but it did
not help.

Perhaps an multi-architecture issue? Do you run an Ubuntu Studio amd64
install? If so, is libxml2:i386 installed?
Is Adobe reader needed for something? I'm not dogmatic, I use
proprietary software myself, but only if needed. Why do you want Adobe
reader?
1. Update your sources, *sudo apt-get update*
2. Install *gdebi* package
3. Install AcroRead *.deb* package using *gdebi*. This should look for your
dependencies.
4. *sudo nspluginwrapper -i /opt/Adobe/Reader9/Browser/intellinux/nppdf.so*
5. BUG. *~/C:\nppdf32Log\debuglog.txt* is created when using AcroRead into
Firefox.
6. BUG for 1024x600. With *alacarte* modify your menu entry putting *env
UBUNTU_MENUPROXY= acroread* instead *acroread
*I made this some months ago. But now I'm not usually using AcroRead. I
prefer *evince* (default program for PDF files). It's faster, free...
