Upgrade to F23 breaks Adobe Reader

[Stephen Davies]

Following last night's upgrade to F23, Adobe Reader now gives:

/opt/Adobe/Reader9/Reader/intellinux/bin/acroread: error while loading shared 
libraries: libgdk_pixbuf_xlib-2.0.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No 
such file or directory

Needless to say, acroread worked perfectly before the upgrade but there is now 
no sign of a 32-bit libgdk_pixbuf_xlib-2.0.so (but there is a 64-bit version).

Cheers,
Stephen

dnf install gdk-pixbuf2-xlib.i686

Btw, you can find that by using
dnf repoquery --whatprovides libgdk_pixbuf_xlib-2.0.so.0

That might tell you the 32-bit or 64-bit version, but you can install 
the one you need.

Thanks for that.

I'm still coming to grips with dnf syntax

Your suggestion gives:

dnf repoquery --whatprovides libgdk_pixbuf_xlib-2.0.so.0

gdk-pixbuf2-xlib-0:2.32.1-1.fc23.i686
gdk-pixbuf2-xlib-0:2.32.3-1.fc23.i686

Also,

dnf provides libgdk_pixbuf_xlib-2.0.so.0

gives

I had omitted the trailing -2.0.so.0 so fund nothing.

acroread now works again;-))
