Hi,
teTeX-src-beta-20021225/PROBLEMS lists the following problem:
Problems which don't cause malfunctions:
- dvipsk shows Broken Pipe messages when \includegraphics is used for
large gzip'ped graphic files. (The ruesult is ok, though.)
AFAIK this problem is also present in teTeX-1.0. A few years ago
someone asked me why he can't print his LaTeX paper. I tracked
the problem in dvipsk down to a erroneous fclose() of a pipe
which decompresses gzip'ped files. The fix is to use close_file()
instead, which uses pclose() when opened by popen(). I attached
the small patch. (against teTeX-src-beta-20021225 )
Unfortunately I lost the test files . Is anyone with the problem above
willing to try my patch?
Bernd
