Acrobat Reader 8 is out, but on openSUSE NON OSS repo I see only version 7. Does it mean that acroread package will not be updated for 10.3 final? Thanks! -- Igor Jagec

Acrobat Reader will be updated to version 8 once 10.3 is released. We are planning on providing it as an online update to 10.3 users. Best, Christoph -- Christoph Thiel, Tech.

There is no v8 of Acrobat Reader anywhere in sight - and I installed this version of 10.3 I am now using only 2 weeks ago. So, someone please unconfuse me re the availability of v8 for openSUSE 10.3.
