Dear all,
Quite some time ago, after posting the original bug report,
I have found a patched version of xpdf that I now have put in the 'hold' status
in my ubuntu/debian package management system. That particular version does not
do the crashing as reported below, and I vaguely recall getting the patched
version
from the replies on this bug report.
I have since then stuck to the patched xpdf version and I cannot test whether
the
original version, or rather now the ubuntu 12.10 version, still crashes.
Indeed I did not send a pdf with the report, but at least 5 PDFs made that old
version
of xpdf crash and none of those made evince crash, so I am confident that the
pdfs are
fine. I realize that this makes debugging difficult.
If it helps, my current -working version- pdf is called:
xpdf_3.02-12ubuntu2nopoppler0_amd64.deb
I do not recall where I got it from.
Sorry for having no input for the debugging anymore. I have lost track and had
to be
pragmatic on solving my problem.
thanks for all the attention.
