I would like to say that I can reproduce this bug in Ubuntu 7.04 (Fiesty). I first came across this bug in Inkscape when trying to save an svg I was working on in the .ai (Adobe Illustrator) format. installing gs-gpl and switching to it (using the program galternatives, or through the command line as mentioned above) fixed the issue for me. Still, GS-ESP is the default GS and this serious memory leak needs to be plugged. Googling hasn't shown me that anyone else/nor upstream knows about this issue. Could it be an ubuntu repackaging breakage? I can't imagine something so serious not being caught relatively quickly the gs-esp release.
Perhaps a shout to the gs-esp mailing list may be worth a go Calling gs-esp from the command line also causes this serious mem leak. -- [GPL GS WORKS] evince (gs-esp) memory leak opening .eps files https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/75894 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug contact for evince in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
