The following is only my personal proposal for a more informative and more explicit text but I am not at all a decision maker here:
------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 3.4. Adobe Reader (acroread) and Other PDF Readers
Adobe no longer provides (security) updates for Adobe Reader (acroread). Therefore the acroread package was dropped from the distribution to protect openSUSE users.
Adobe Reader is non-free proprietary binary-only software from Adobe so that there is nothing what openSUSE could do regarding any issue.
openSUSE includes various PDF viewing tools like Okular, Evince, and xpdf-poppler. These tools are actively maintained and get security fixes from openSUSE and their upstream authors.
openSUSE users who are interested in Adobe Reader need to contact Adobe directly, for example online via http://www.adobe.com/products/reader.html ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
