Package: gv Version: 1:3.6.2-2 Severity: normal Hello,
when opening the attached PDF in xpdf or acroread, an empty page is displayed. When opening it in gv, it seems like all memory is consumed; the machine stops responding and I can see that the HD is busy all the time. My interpretation is that it's swapping madly, but I have no proof. If I interrupt gv early enough, I can still recover, but on one occasion I just did a hard reset after waiting for >10 minutes. IIRC the file was created by inkscape's PDF export, but I'm not entirely sure. (It may also have been OpenOffice.)
