As much as I would like a sane Adobe reader RPM in rpmfusion, it's not
possible afaics. From
http://www.adobe.com/products/acrobat/distribute.html
"""
Note: Third-party websites must link directly to Adobe.com for the
download of Adobe Reader software. Hosting the software independently is
not permitted.
"""

IOW: we can ship that without breaking licenses, thus we won't ship it.
Same for flash-player afaik.

If someone really wants to see it in rpmfusion feel free to ask Adobe to
get us a permission to ship it. I tried that ages ago for livna without
much success.
