Package: okular
Version: 0.7-2
Severity: normal
FWIW, I'm running Okular on a primarily KDE 3 host, so this might be some kind
of
incompatibility thing. I'm not sure.
Trying to print a PDF document fails. There is no error message, but after
clicking "Print", Okular spends a bit of time doing some processing, after
which no job is sent to the print queue. Okular then attempts to reload the
document and fails without an error message - just the default big blank grey
"no document loaded yet" panel.
What has happened is that something during this process has overwritten the
..pdf file with a postscript conversion. When Okular attempts to reload the
file, I guess it runs into #496669, tries the wrong backend, and fails.
Overwriting files like this is quite rude of Okular, IMO.
Peace,
Brendon

Nice to hear that :) Qt 4.4.3 has helped much about that; closing then.
Thanks for your report!
