I can confirm this issue and its resolution. I got the same segfault about the same undefined symbol when I last upgraded evince:
ii libpoppler-glib8:amd64 0.26.5-2 amd64 PDF rendering library (GLib-based shared library) ii libpoppler46:amd64 0.26.5-1 amd64 PDF rendering library ii poppler-data 0.4.7-1 all encoding data for the poppler PDF rendering library ii poppler-utils 0.26.5-2 amd64 PDF utilities (based on Poppler) ii evince 3.14.1-1 amd64 Document (PostScript, PDF) viewer ii evince-common 3.14.1-1 all Document (PostScript, PDF) viewer - common files ii gir1.2-evince-3.0 3.14.1-1 amd64 GObject introspection data for the evince libraries The error message: (evince:1962): EvinceDocument-WARNING **: /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libpoppler-glib.so.8: undefined symbol: _ZN7GfxFont16getAlternateNameEPKc Segmentation fault also, manually upgrading libpoppler46 to the -2 version fixed the issue. since the problem seems to be coming from the version difference between libpoppler46 and libpoppler-glib8, this bug report might be more suited to the library libpoppler-glib8, since that's the package that's depending on libpoppler46 -- Gabriel Filion
