Where to download Acroread for FC5 64 bit


Hi folks,

Searching Acroread for FC_64 brought me;
acroread-7.0.5-2.2.fc4.rf.i386.rpm


After installation;
# which acroread
/usr/bin/acroread

# /usr/bin/acroread
/usr/lib/acroread/Reader/intellinux/bin/acroread: error while loading shared lib
raries: /usr/lib/acroread/Reader/intellinux/lib/libJP2K.so: cannot restore segment prot after reloc: Permission denied


It seems this package is not for FC5_64. Please advise where can I download Acroread for FC5_64?

TIA

B.R.

This looks like an SE-Linux issue....

Pasting your error line in google lead me to.... a thread that already discussed the problem on linuxquestions:

Hi zeitounator,

Tks for your advice and URL.

Read following threads on Fedora mailing list;
- FC5, selinux and acroread
- Selinux attacks acroread again

Ran following commands;

chcon -t textrel_shlib_t /usr/lib/acroread/Reader/intellinux/lib/*.so

chcon -t textrel_shlib_t /usr/lib/acroread/Reader/intellinux/plug_ins/*.api

# chcon -t texrel_shlib_t /usr/lib/acroread/Reader/intellinux/lib/libJP2K.so

/usr/sbin/semanage fcontext -a -t textrel_shlib_t \
'/usr/lib/acroread/Reader/intellinux/SPPlugins/.*\.apl'

/usr/sbin/semanage fcontext -a -t textrel_shlib_t \
'/usr/lib/acroread/Reader/intellinux/plug_ins/.*\.api'

Acroread started but died immediately. Any advice?

TIA

B.R.

You could try to temporarely disable SELinux and see if the problem still exists to completely put asside a possible selinux problem. If it is not that, I have no idea...

I know this is a bit off topic - but have you tried any of the free PDF readers, such as evince and KPDF (both of which come with Fedora Core 5). I use KPDF on a regular basis, and find that it meets all of my needs, sometimes better than Acroread does.

Just a thought

Again, not really answering your question, but I am not at all impressed with acroread 7.0.5. On this machine (2.4GHz P4) it takes about 20 seconds to open a document, while xpdf opens the same thing in a couple of seconds.
