OK this is the backtrace log I generated using the method that you described. but this time when I run evince through gdb it doesn't crash immediately. the program just getting non responsive. the only thing I can do is force quit it. but I performed the steps you've mentioned anyway and as soon as I type 't a a bt f' at the gdb prompt,evince quits.
Here are some lines that for some reason not included in the backtrace log I find suspicious. (These lines appear in my terminal, I'm copy pasting this from there) ------------------------------ (gdb) r Starting program: /usr/bin/evince Networking\ Self-teaching\ Guide.pdf [Thread debugging using libthread_db enabled] [New Thread 0xb6eaf750 (LWP 5848)] [New Thread 0xb6b75b90 (LWP 5851)] [New Thread 0xb5f37b90 (LWP 5852)] Error (9360116): Dictionary key must be a name object Error (9360260): Bad 'Length' attribute in stream Error (0): Call to Object where the object was type 11, not the expected type 8 Program received signal SIGABRT, Aborted. [Switching to Thread 0xb6b75b90 (LWP 5851)] 0xb8061430 in __kernel_vsyscall () ------------------------------- According to this, the program has received SIGABRT , Which I can't figure out received from where. also I've renamed the pdf file which I have problems viewing and opened it using evince but the result was same. it quits immediately. ** Attachment added: "backtrace.log" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/33096038/backtrace.log -- evince crashes immediately after loading a document https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/440382 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
