The bug is explained in PR 41042. If you remove the
/usr/local/bin/acroread link after de-installing one of the acroread
ports, you should be able to install the other. Probably the best thing
would be to make ${PREFIX}/bin/acroread into a little script, in a
separate port that both acroread ports depend upon, that tries to run
whichever Acrobat Reader is installed. If the ports collection supported
conflicts (see stale portmgr PRs), there would be no need for such a
kludge.
