Maybe :-) I had read the long list as being required by okular and wondered if
those wide-range packages were somehow responsible. Adobe-reader doesn't appear to
be on offer..
I'm sure it is definite. For it to have been unambiguous (aka clear) I should have
written...
FWIW, okular does what I need it to do and I really don't like (personal preference)
the 80+ i686 packages Adobe Reader needs installed in order for it to run.
Sorry for the confusion.
