Description: #
Acrobat Reader is part of the Adobe Acrobat family of software, which lets you view, distribute, and print documents in Portable Document Format (PDF)--regardless of the computer, operating system, fonts, or application used to create the original file. PDF files retain all the formatting, fonts, and graphics of the original document, and virtually any PostScript(TM) document can be converted into a PDF file.

Installation will fail if Linux strip is not found, allow the install
to go on if that happens.  (same fix applied to the acroread5 port a week
ago).

Change the port name to "acroread4" so we can remove the "no latest"   setting
and make this pkg_add -r'able.  I don't see acroread4 replacing   acroread3 as
the preferred acroreader in many's eyes.

Change PKGDIR from pkg/ to .  Also fix places where ${PKGDIR} is   spelled out
(many of which are ${PKGDIR}/MESSAGE -> ${PKGMESSAGE} type   fixes that
shouldn't have been necessary) and the string "/pkg/"   appear.
