Update Acroread for better printing support

[Mario Limonciello]

Adobe Acrobat Reader has been updated upstream to version 7.0.5.

I am currently using this on another box running gentoo. The printing GUI has been revamped to allow printing to detected CUPS printers on the network (a huge improvement from having to do lp -d PRINTER in the print option).

This will be especially helpful for new users to linux who miss their Adobe Reader, and the experts alike who don't like having to memorize the name assigned to their printer in CUPS.

I too have run into this problem and suggest Acroread be upgraded!

there's a 7.0.5 package in marilatt's archive that works fine.

There's also a problem with mozilla-acroread (unresolved symbols).
It doesn't work with firefox 1.5.

On the console you see:
LoadPlugin: failed to initialize shared library
/usr/lib/Adobe/Acrobat7.0/Browser/intellinux/nppdf.so
[/usr/lib/Adobe/Acrobat7.0/Browser/intellinux/nppdf.so: undefined
symbol: XtCalloc]

Whoopie: don't hijack bug reports for other problems.

Unfortunately Acroread 7.0.5 wont be going into Dapper as version freeze has started. If theres *compelling reasons* for it to go in though, it can be given an exeption -

If you have any such reasons, please post them here.

The printing support definitely is a compelling reason. However, there
currently is confusion about the adobe license so this will most likely
not happen for Dapper.
