Title:
dia -t eps-builtin produces unreadable output
Status in “ghostscript” package in Ubuntu:
Expired
Bug description:
Creating any dia file, then trying to convert it to embedded
postscript with "dia -t eps-builtin -e bug.eps bug.dia" (dia 0.97.2),
produces a result that is unreadable by evince, ghostscript, or
epstopdf (ghostscript 9.10).
I suspect this is a bug in ghostscript, since I can use dia 0.97 on
another (ScientificLinux 6) system to create eps files which work on
that system but fail on Ubuntu 14.04, and I can take the eps files
which cannot successfully be read on Ubuntu 14.04 and successfully
read them on SL6 (ghostscript 8.70). It may be that dia is producing
invalid postscript but earlier ghostscript versions are being less
strict about it.
The error from ghostscript is the only one which looks informative:
