Here's my version of the workaround, it patches all the nppdf files only if they match the broken md5sum. Just copy/paste all of it in a single line in a terminal and enter your password when prompted by the sudo command.
find /usr /opt -name '*nppdf*' | xargs md5sum | while read sum file; do if [ "$sum" = "5ca924df0f81f7b922f003a37b588a60" ]; then sudo sed 's@C:\\nppdf32Log\\debuglog.txt@//////////////////dev/null@' -i "$file"; echo "Patched $file $sum"; else echo "Skipped $file $sum"; fi; done Example output: Patched /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins/nppdf.so 5ca924df0f81f7b922f003a37b588a60 Patched /usr/lib/firefox-addons/plugins/nppdf.so 5ca924df0f81f7b922f003a37b588a60 Patched /usr/lib/firefox/plugins/nppdf.so 5ca924df0f81f7b922f003a37b588a60 Patched /opt/Adobe/Reader9/Browser/intellinux/nppdf.so 5ca924df0f81f7b922f003a37b588a60 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Canonical Partner Developers, which is subscribed to acroread in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/986841 Title: Debug log created by Adobe Reader browser plugin (nppdf.so) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/null-and-void/+bug/986841/+subscriptions _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~canonical-partner-dev Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~canonical-partner-dev More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
