Bug Description
I believe one of the Adobe upgrade packages caused my </opt> directory to be unlinked. Usually I symlink this directory to a path on another partition </opt => /home/opt>, something I've done since Ubuntu 8 series. After doing an upgrade today that link was lost and in its place was a new </opt> with contents </opt/Adobe/
I'm using Kubuntu 12.04 with the Muon update manager, but I suspect it isn't related to those components.
I've attached a screenshot showing the other packages updated at the same time.

Hi, a new acroread release (0.9.4) is available for update, could you give it a try and tell us if the problem persists?
If you still have this bug please set back the status to "new"
thanks
