Adobe reader multilanguage

Hi all,

please have look at: https://groups.google.com/d/msg/autopkg-discuss/ZisR54Fm6wo/KdkVDY3ekjQJ

I have stumbled across the same problem with our German customers. Adobe releases no full installer for non-english versions of Adobe Reader, but just an updater. I have modified the url provider to support the updater pkgs and added to processors to support the international updates. (These are my first steps with Python, so please excuse any extraordinary code snippets ;-))

I have tested the workflow at our site and it has worked fine.

Best,
Matthias
More importantly, is there any way we can find this URL without resorting to FTP? Some sites have proxies in place that interfere with stuff like this; while there are often workarounds, presumably the autopkg user already has HTTP downloads working.

For example, does Adobe Reader have a URL it checks for an update feed, the way Flash Player does? If so, reading that and parsing that for the update URL would avoid the use of FTP.

This isn't a big deal, but might increase the number of people who could take advantage of this.
