Package: evince Version: 2.20.1-1 Severity: wishlist When evince is already displaying some document, it will, when called as "evince document" return quickly and instruct the running instance of evince to open the given document. This sometimes interacts badly with scripts that delete the document right after evince has returned.
It would be good to make evince wait until the other instance has opened the document (un)successfully and return an status code indicating this condition to ease integration into scripts that display documents. Alternatively, a --disable-factory option like gnome-terminal has could be added for such use cases although the former is IMHO much preferable. -- System Information: Debian Release: lenny/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: powerpc (ppc) Kernel: Linux 2.6.24-rc2-g41aa1d66-dirty (PREEMPT) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages evince depends on: ii ghostscript [gs-es 8.61.dfsg.1~svn8187-2 The GPL Ghostscript PostScript/PDF ii gnome-icon-theme 2.20.0-1 GNOME Desktop icon theme ii gs-esp 8.61.dfsg.1~svn8187-2 Transitional package ii libart-2.0-2 2.3.19-3 Library of functions for 2D graphi ii libatk1.0-0 1.20.0-1 The ATK accessibility toolkit ii libbonobo2-0 2.20.1-1 Bonobo CORBA interfaces library ii libbonoboui2-0 2.20.0-1 The Bonobo UI library ii libc6 2.7-0exp8 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii libcairo2 1.4.10-1+b2 The Cairo 2D vector graphics libra ii libdbus-1-3 1.1.1-3 simple interprocess messaging syst ii libdbus-glib-1-2 0.74-1 simple interprocess messaging syst ii libdjvulibre15 3.5.19-3 Runtime support for the DjVu image ii libfontconfig1 2.4.91-1 generic font configuration library ii libgconf2-4 2.20.1-1 GNOME configuration database syste ii libglade2-0 1:2.6.2-1 library to load .glade files at ru ii libglib2.0-0 2.14.3-1 The GLib library of C routines ii libgnome-keyring0 2.20.1-1 GNOME keyring services library ii libgnome2-0 2.20.1.1-1 The GNOME 2 library - runtime file ii libgnomecanvas2-0 2.20.1.1-1 A powerful object-oriented display ii libgnomeui-0 2.20.1.1-1 The GNOME 2 libraries (User Interf ii libgnomevfs2-0 1:2.20.0-3 GNOME Virtual File System (runtime ii libgtk2.0-0 2.12.1-1 The GTK+ graphical user interface ii libice6 2:1.0.4-1 X11 Inter-Client Exchange library ii libjpeg62 6b-14 The Independent JPEG Group's JPEG ii libkpathsea4 2007.dfsg.1-1 TeX Live: path search library for ii libnautilus-extens 2.20.0-1 libraries for nautilus components ii liborbit2 1:2.14.7-0.1 libraries for ORBit2 - a CORBA ORB ii libpango1.0-0 1.19.0-1 Layout and rendering of internatio ii libpoppler-glib2 0.6.1-1 PDF rendering library (GLib-based ii libpopt0 1.10-3 lib for parsing cmdline parameters ii libsm6 2:1.0.3-1+b1 X11 Session Management library ii libstdc++6 4.2.2-3 The GNU Standard C++ Library v3 ii libtiff4 3.8.2-7 Tag Image File Format (TIFF) libra ii libx11-6 2:1.1.3-1 X11 client-side library ii libxcomposite1 1:0.3.2-1+b1 X11 Composite extension library ii libxcursor1 1:1.1.9-1 X cursor management library ii libxdamage1 1:1.1.1-3 X11 damaged region extension libra ii libxext6 1:1.0.3-2 X11 miscellaneous extension librar ii libxfixes3 1:4.0.3-2 X11 miscellaneous 'fixes' extensio ii libxi6 2:1.1.3-1 X11 Input extension library ii libxinerama1 1:1.0.2-1 X11 Xinerama extension library ii libxml2 2.6.30.dfsg-2 GNOME XML library ii libxrandr2 2:1.2.2-1 X11 RandR extension library ii libxrender1 1:0.9.4-1 X Rendering Extension client libra ii zlib1g 1:1.2.3.3.dfsg-7 compression library - runtime evince recommends no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
