I ran into the same segfault with another document, and for both documents the crash goes away and the document gets shown properly after downgrading libpoppler19 to the unmodified 0.18.4-1 package from Debian experimental.
When I recompile the poppler 0.18.4-1 package from Debian experimental on my up-to-date amd64 precise and install the libpoppler19 binary package built, xpdf does crash on both documents. Can someone confirm that observation? It smells like a bug in Ubuntu's gcc to me (but I might be wrong on that). -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to poppler in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/952314 Title: CMapCache::getCMap SEGV with 'Creusage_-_Tunnel_sous_la_Manche.pdf' Status in Poppler: Unknown Status in “poppler” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: The following PDF reliably causes xpdf and Evince to crash/hang: http://www.gramme.be/unite9/pmwiki/uploads/PrGC0708/Creusage_- _Tunnel_sous_la_Manche.pdf Even when the file is split up into separate pages using 'pdftk burst', all pages still cause the crash, including the smallest one at 11kB; the crash is likely related to the loading of one of the embedded fonts. Ideally even if Poppler can't handle a particular font, it should not result in a crash.
