Neither of those files should present at the system if you install linux programs via ports/packages (if they do, please, reproduce it and file a PR): . /compat/linux/etc/pango/pango.modules; . /compat/linux/usr/bin/pango-querymodules; . /compat/linux/usr/bin/pango-querymodules. All those files are autocreated by the port/package: . /compat/linux/usr/bin/pango-querymodules-32; . /compat/linux/etc/pango/i686-redhat-linux-gnu/pango.modules. > Once that happened, to my surprise, acroread > fired up and ran seamlessly. The port system do it for you automatically.
