Hi, By default Gnus distributed with the xemacs21 package in woody uses acroread as the PDF viewer. As far as I can tell this is via the mm-mime-data-default variable in the mm.el library (but I am not certain, Gnus has always confused me a little some of the time).
Since acroread is not available in Debian, and probably will never be for the forseeable future, is it possible to have the default be something else (xpdf is what I tend to use)? My /etc/mailcap does not suggest acroread for PDF either, so that does not seem to be the problem. Is this a bug? Or should I be looking to fix it elsewhere? My installed xemacs21 packages are: $ dpkg -l 'xemacs*' | grep ^i ii xemacs21 21.4.6-8 Editor and kitchen sink ii xemacs21-bases 2002.03.29-1 Editor and kitchen sink -- compiled elisp su ii xemacs21-bases 2002.03.29-1 Editor and kitchen sink -- source elisp supp ii xemacs21-bin 21.4.6-8 Editor and kitchen sink -- support binaries ii xemacs21-mule 21.4.6-8 Editor and kitchen sink -- Mule binary ii xemacs21-mules 2002.03.29-1 Editor and kitchen sink -- Mule elisp suppor ii xemacs21-mules 2002.03.29-1 Editor and kitchen sink -- source elisp supp ii xemacs21-nomul 21.4.6-8 Editor and kitchen sink -- Non-mule binary ii xemacs21-suppo 21.4.6-8 Editor and kitchen sink -- architecture inde ii xemacs21-suppo 21.4.6-8 Editor and kitchen sink -- non-required libr Cheers!
