Parent article: Adobe releases Acrobat 7 with Linux reader support (ZDNet)

I gave it a quick testdrive on FC 2
Could you tell me what license they used? Is it the same one as with acroread5 which forbids packaging as rpm or deb ("however, you may not otherwise alter or modify the installer program or create a new installer for any of such software")?

As far as I can see the included license file 'AdobeReader/LICREAD.TXT' contains the usual acrobat reader requirements:
2.2.2 For information on how to distribute the Software on tangible media or through an internal network please refer to the sections entitled "How to Distribute Adobe Reader" at http://www.adobe.com/products/acrobat/distribute.html
