Problems installing/running acroread 7: libBIB.so

[Andrew Robinson]

Hi everyone,

I'm having trouble with the acroread 7 port.  I seem to have installed
it just fine, but it fails to run, citing the following error:

/usr/X11R6/Adobe/Acrobat7.0/ENU/Reader/intellinux/bin/acroread: error
while loading shared libraries: libBIB.so: cannot open shared object
file: No such file or directory

Now, I know that I have this library:

$ locate libBIB.so
/usr/X11R6/Adobe/Acrobat7.0/ENU/Reader/intellinux/lib/libBIB.so
/usr/X11R6/Adobe/Acrobat7.0/ENU/Reader/intellinux/lib/libBIB.so.1.1
/usr/local/Acrobat5/Reader/intellinux/lib/libBIB.so
/usr/local/Acrobat5/Reader/intellinux/lib/libBIB.so.1.1

so I'm a little confused as to what the error is telling me and what I
can do to fix it.  Any suggestions will be welcomed!

Cheers

Andrew
