Hi John, You can download the old package from ubuntu: http://packages.ubuntu.com/precise/libspectre1
Install with : sudo dpkg -i libspectre1_0.2.6-1build1_amd64.deb Do not try and remove the newer 0.2.7 package before you install this one, that would require you to remove a ton of stuff to satisfy dependencies. After installing, you can go into synaptic package manager, search for libspectre1, click on it, then select Package->Lock Version from the menu. That will keep it from trying to update to the new version. Just a workaround until the problem gets fixed, but I hope it helps. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to evince in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1348384 Title: evince and okular do not render eps files correctly resulting in a black background Status in “evince” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Several eps files, which previously rendered correctly, are not rendered correctly by evince and okular. It looks as though something is wrong with the "transparency" setting, since most of the incorrectly-rendered files have a black background, but the figure can somewhat be made out on top of hte black background. The PDF files I have tested are NOT affected. EPS files that were previously viewable correctly ARE affected. Thank you for your time.
