Just a heads up on the most recent Adobe Reader update, which came out on 3/8/2016.

Adobe Reader Update 11.0.15 requires 11.0.14 (UGH).

Adobe Reader Update 11.0.14 requires Adobe Reader 11.0 or higher.
https://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/detail.jsp?ftpID=6013

I personally use 11.0.10, the last full installer that came out, as the base.
Then add the update 11.0.14.
Then add the update 11.0.15.

The latest ReaderDC (2015/Classic-1500630121) is ALSO an update package, with no availability for a full installer.  (Which was why Autopkg was choking when I tried to manually feed the package into it).

However, the Continuous track has a full installer.

UGH +1.

Same problem with the Acrobat Pro XI updates. They appear to require that 11.0.14 be installed first.

So I also have 11.0.10 in munki as the "base" for AdobeReader

And I have 11.0.14 in there as an update_for AdobeReader

But how can I put 11.0.15 in munki as an update_for 11.0.14 ?   Is it possible to mark it as requiring a specific version first? I'm not familiar with how this would work in the pkgsinfo plist

You can mark it with a specific version, yes.

If your 11.0.14 is called "AdobeReaderUpdate", you would put the same name for your 11.0.15 update, and add to its pkginfo:

<key>requires</key>
<array>
    <string>AdobeReaderUpdate-11.0.14</string>
</array>

When Munki checks for available updates for AdobeReader, it will first select 11.0.15, but then see that this update first requires the 11.0.14 of the same name, and should install things in the right order.

Ah perfect - I didn't realize you could put the versions in the required tag like that

Thanks!
