[gentoo-amd64] acroread error

[Shaochun Wang]

When I excute acroread, the following message is printed:

Gtk-Message: Failed to load module "gnomebreakpad": libgnomebreakpad.so:
cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

But it seems acroread still working.

Does anyone know what happened?

As I suspected and a quick google confirmed, breakpad is a crash-logger 
application.  (I use KDE which has a similar app, not GNOME, but the name 
and the fact that it didn't affect operation were both big hints.)  See 
unSpawn's reply to the following linuxquestions.org question on a similar 
Amaya warning, here (ignore the yum stuff, read the stuff in italics, 
which he appears to be quoting from somewhere).

Watch the wrap:
