Speaking about Acrobat Reader, the needed value is defined at
LOCALEBASE/bin/acroread script (for Acrobat Reader 8 only). It's a
variable MOZILLA_COMP_PATH. We can't predefine it because it is not
tested but just defined:
-----
case ${ADOBE_VER} in
7)
        ACROBASE=Adobe/Acrobat7.0
        BINPREFIX=bin
;;
8)
        ACROBASE=Adobe/Reader8
        BINPREFIX=Adobe/Reader8/bin
        MOZILLA_COMP_PATH=/..//usr/local/lib/linux-nvu
        export MOZILLA_COMP_PATH
;;
esac
