--- Comment #13 from Johannes Meixner 2013-11-12 15:57:36 CET ---
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
