--- Begin Message ---Package: evince Version: 2.26.2-2 Severity: normal evince-thumbnailer called on a DVI file with a completely missing font gets stuck in an infinite loop, trying to generate the TFM file again and again. For instance, with the attached testfont.dvi , the output is as shown below, with a backtrace below that. It tries to generate anttb.tfm , but there is no anttb.tfm (anymore), and no anttb.mf either. That's for the Antiqua Tornunski bold font; there are various files like cs-anttb.tfm evince-thumbnailer was called behind my back by nautilus, and as a result one core was kept busy constantly in a mysterious way: no single busy process showed in top because evince-thumbnailer kept spawning short running mktextfm processes... I tried to compile evince-thumbnailer from source, to add some debugging statements (apt-get source evince ; apt-get install kpathsea-dev; cd evince-2.26.2; ./configure; make; sudo make install), but that self built version did correctly figure out that the tfm file was missing.
