Bug#976080: pdfxup doesn't work anymore
Control tags -1 + fixed-upstream Am 25.04.2021 um 16:31 teilte Nicolas Markey mit: Hi Nicolas, I could figure out where the problem comes from: ghostscript added a patch level in their version numbers. A way of fixing this is to replace line 456 of pdfxup v2.00 (or line 363 of pdfxup v1.61, or line 354 of v1.60), which currently reads GSVERSION=`$GS --version 2>/dev/null`; with GSVERSION=`$GS --version 2>/dev/null|sed -e "s/\(.\.[^\.]*\)\..*/\\1/"`; Sorry for this. This will be corrected in the next version of pdfxup. I noticed that your fix is already on CTAN, hence I mark this issue as fixed in upstream. Many thanks for work!

I could figure out where the problem comes from: ghostscript added a
patch level in their version numbers. A way of fixing this is to replace
line 456 of pdfxup v2.00 (or line 363 of pdfxup v1.61, or line 354 of
v1.60), which currently reads
GSVERSION=`$GS --version 2>/dev/null`;
with
GSVERSION=`$GS --version 2>/dev/null|sed -e "s/\(.\.[^\.]*\)\..*/\\1/"`;
Sorry for this. This will be corrected in the next version of pdfxup.

Sorry for my late answer. Two comments on this problem:
1) currently pdfxup does not handle several input files. Everything
after the first PDf file is omitted. So the command above would work,
but would be equivalent to
$ pdfxup -l 28-11-2020-attestation-de-deplacement-derogatoire.pdf
2) I cannot reproduce the bug. Apparently, it occurred with v1.60 (lines
360-361 test the version number of ghostscript). It seems that your bash
does not correctly interpret "${GSVERSION%.*}", which should return "9".
Could you try (in bash)
$ GSVERSION=9.53; echo "${GSVERSION%.*}"
Best,

Bug#976080: Info received (Bug#976080: pdfxup doesn't work anymore)
I found a simple work around: Move the file to /tmp before running pdfxup on it. Whew.

I tried replacing -dSAFER with -dNOSAFER in the script (per https://github.com/bmjcode/tkDocViewer/issues/1) , but that didn't solve it for me. I'd love a work around besides using another program, such as briss. I use pdfxup a lot.
