> As for the segfault, how long has it been since you did a revdep-rebuild?

Finally had time to run revdep-rebuild -- included
a full upgrade of everything everywhere.

Still doesn't open the file: just sits there for
a while and gives me an exit 1. (i.e., acroread
blah; echo $? shows "1" for the echo).

Guess I'll strace it next and see where it
ends up.

Thanks to all of you for taking the time, at
least I know that it should be working!
