Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: evince

While using 'pdftk' I was able to attach a PDF document within another
PDF as a document-level attachment. Using evince 2.22.2-0ubuntu1 on
Ubuntu Hardy, I am able to see that document-level PDF attachment and I
can extract the file using 'save as' in the 'Attachments' sidebar.

The problem is that when I attempt to open that extracted attachment, it
doesn't work. Further investigation shows that the extracted PDF file is
about 30% of the size of the original intended attachment, and also has
a different MD5sum.

I checked with the 'pdftk' function 'unpack_files' and I can see that
the file is correctly embedded in the PDF, because I can recover it
exactly using pdftk.

Perhaps this is a problem with poppler or some underlying library. I'm
not sure.

Cheers
JP
