Package: evince
Version: 2.30.3-1
Severity: critical
Justification: breaks unrelated software
I am looking at a 7.9meg pdf (postgres 9.0.2). I have no issues with viewing
the pdf.
However, once evince has started, I can not logout from gnome, or issue a
reboot command or shutdown command from Gnome.
I am using Debian Squeeze with all updates as of 30 Dec 2010.
I did not check if evince 2.30, has the same problems for smaller PDF files.
