Hello, I'm getting a crash with acroread on my CentOS7 (AdobeReader_enu-9.5.5-1.i486). I install the official rpms from ftp://ftp.adobe.com/pub/adobe/reader/unix/, tried 9.5.5, and former v9, v8, v7. /usr/bin/acroread loads well, but when you click a menu, bang. Same if you start acroread w/ a .pdf filename in parameter, the window opens up then crashes. I modified the acroread script to run the binary from within gdb, I get this: Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault. 0xf5437cee in compute_face () from /lib/libcairo.so.2 Unfortunately, the system completely hangs when it happens (acroread from gdb) and I must kill acroread from a tty, so I cannot get a more detailed backtrace for now. Is that something somebody here already saw? Regards, -- wwp -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...

It would be better to use evince, atril or okular. -- Ian

Thanks :-) I'm still using acroread on CentOS6 (other computers than this C7 one) and never had a single problem.
