Acroread problems [Solved]

I used yaourt to install acroread... making sure to edit the pkgbuild so that it installed 'x86_64' rather than i686. Invoking acroread gives me this message:

[eric@myhost /]$ acroread
terminate called after throwing an instance of 'ASErrException'
Aborted

What did I do wrong?

Re: Acroread problems [Solved]

I read somewhere that apparently the 32-bit libraries and files and everything is actually an unlisted dependancy for some reason. Where can I get these? Specifically, the 32-bit libraries for acroread

Re: Acroread problems [Solved]

Ok, I installed bin32-acroread with yaourt... not sure what the difference is between that one and the normal acroread, but now it is opening, however I get this:

[eric@homebox ~]$ acroread

(acroread:11500): Gtk-WARNING **: /usr/lib/gtk-2.0/2.10.0/engines/libxfce.so: wrong ELF class: ELFCLASS64

(acroread:11500): Gtk-WARNING **: /usr/lib/gtk-2.0/2.10.0/engines/libxfce.so: wrong ELF class: ELFCLASS64

(acroread:11500): Gtk-WARNING **: /usr/lib/gtk-2.0/2.10.0/engines/libxfce.so: wrong ELF class: ELFCLASS64

Like I said, acroread opens and works, but what does this stuff mean?

Re: Acroread problems [Solved]

The reason for the error is that bin32-acroread is the 32 bit version of acroread designed to use the bin32 libs in a 64 bit environment. The error (acroread:11500): Gtk-WARNING **: /usr/lib/gtk-2.0/2.10.0/engines/libxfce.so: wrong ELF class: ELFCLASS64 is telling you that the libxfce.so is a 64 bit library not a 32 bit library. That library is not needed to run bin32-acroread so don't worry about the error.

It's telling you that it's finding a 32 bit xfce theme. Don't delete it. Everyone using Flash on 64 bit get lots of complaints from nspluginwrapper about MPlayer.
