I could swear that this was working just last week, but now when I run the Adobe Acrobat reader, it hangs. If I run it "directly" (/usr/bin/acroread) with -DEBUG as the first argument, I get an infinite loop of:

expr: syntax error

I tried removing and reinstalling it, but no change.

Any ideas?

# gedit /usr/local/Adobe/Acrobat7.0/bin/acroread

Make the following changes:
