Hello,
I use evince to view .eps and .ps files (usually plots of scientific
data). After my recent cygwin update, evince no longer is able to open
.eps or .ps files. I get the following error.
**** Unable to open the initial device, quitting.
fatal internal error -100
From a web search in Linux forums, this may be an issue with
libspectre that has been fixed in a recent version, but is not yet
available in cygwin. evince can open pdf files, so it is just eps and
ps files that give the error. gs can open the eps files.
Any help/suggestions would be appreciated.
Cheers,

The recent Cygwin distribution update to libspectre 0.2.9-1 has fixed
this issue.
Thanks!
