Description Kurt 2004-06-16 21:28:56 UTC
It looks like Acrobat Reader 5.0.9 is available for download from the usual Adobe site.  Their text only page still shows 5.0.8, but their normal page where you choose platform, etc shows 5.0.9.  Request for the ebuild.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:

Taking bets on whether this version actually works without chewing up all your CPU or not.  Minimum bet is 50 monetary units. Odds are 10 to 1 against it working.

Seems better than 5.0.8. (It still sucks ~80% of my CPU, though)
I put the ebuild to CVS. Thanks for the report.

I have not sync yet, just copy the old ebuild and removed the utf-8 (looks like it get fixed.) I am just going to spoil here :) (Seemant Kulleen already made a ton of money with $5 here and there from our devs.)

Well, it did lock my xorg-x11 that I have to Ctrl+Alt+Fn to send a HUP to it.

Same thing happened here, 5.09 locked xorg. First time I tried I fixed killing process from fb console, second time it didn't work and I had to kill xorg with Ctrl+Alt+Backspace.

According to freshmeat 5.0.9 is a security update: "A security patch was applied that solves a couple of problems reported with malformed uuencoded PDF files."
