Public bug reported:

Version updates to Adobe Acrobat reader are not being reported correctly
to Firefox.  Although aptitude shows that I have version 9.5.4-1precise1
installed (as does Help->About Adobe Reader within Adobe Reader), when I
go to tools->AddOns->Plugins in Firefox, the system reports that I have
Adobe Reader 9.4 installed.  Additionally, external browser plugin
checkers (e.g. https://browsercheck.qualys.com/ ) report that I have
version 9.4.0 installed.

To reproduce this, it seems to be necessary to have installed an older
version originally, and then upgraded using aptitude (or equivalent).

Even if I remove the acroread package and then re-install it, Firefox
and the external browser plugin checkers only report that I'm running
version 9.5.0 and not 9.5.4.
