Guessing a bad download. Delete it from /var/cache/urpmi/rpms and try
again.

Mine went in with no problem. Had to change mirrors. Old one has maxed
out connections for the past 24 hours.

Let's see

Hmmm, no acroread package for 2007.
There was one shipped on 2006 though
pkg-2006.0.idx:2006-Disc3 acroread-7.0.1-3mdk.i586

If I recall correctly, it has been in the non-free area of
the Club ISOs since at least 10.0. It's there on my Club
ISOs for 2007.
