Sigh. I just do not understand Apparmor.
I thought that perhaps the Apparmor profile for Firefox was not permitting Firefox to open Adobe Reader. So, as an experiment, I added the following rule to usr.bin.firefox.
No doubt the Apparmor experts are laughing at me, because naturally it didn't work. I am utterly stumped and don't know how to proceed.Code:/usr/bin/acroread Pix,
I have reverted the profile to its default. For now, I'll have to live without the ability to open a downloaded file from Firefox.
Always make regular backups of your data (and test them).

Thanks, but I don't think that's the reason.
I can open the PDF with Adobe when the Apparmor profile is disabled.
When the profile is enabled, I am prevented from opening not only a PDF file with Adobe, but also an Open Office file with Libre Office.
However, I have just discovered that I can open a PDF with Evince. Hmm…

The page allows me to download tarred files or iso only. It cannot be opened by LibreOffice, I think.
Edit :
Okay, I find this page can download LibreOffice format files. I can download it from Firefox and it automatically opened by LibreOffice at my side with Apparmor for Firefox enabled.
