Update evince to 0.9.0 (pointed out by Lawrence Teo a few days ago).
Disable scrollkeeper using an appropriate configure option instead
of the symlink hack.
Add NO_REGRESS = Yes.
RUN_DEPENDS += desktop-file-utils, and update the desktop database
and the icon cache during install/uninstall. (All from Mikolaj Kucharski)
Add a FLAVOR no_libgnome.
Please test and comment, especially if you're running that GNOME
desktop thing (I don't, so I may miss some problems).
Matthias,
I was trying out both the no_libgnome flavor and the "unflavored"
evince, and am experiencing core dumps when doing File/Open. This
is on the May 28 i386 snapshot. I'm running Xfce 4.4.1.
The behavior is weird though. At first it was working, then it's
not. My test was to run "evince file1.pdf", and then use
File/Open to open a second PDF file. Here's specifically what I
did:
1. First, I installed the no_libgnome flavor, and everything
worked fine (i.e. File/Open actually opened the second file and
did not dump core).
2. I then uninstalled the no_libgnome flavor, and tried the
unflavored version with the same test. When I tried File/Open, I
got an error dialog saying: "The application evince has crashed.
Please install bug-buddy, the GNOME crash report tool, which
enables you to send the developers detailed information about
the error." From then on, every time I tried File/Open it
started dumping core.
3. I tried reverting back to the no_libgnome flavor and even
that started dumping core as well.
Here's the gdb backtrace when it crashed (on the no_libgnome
flavor):

I'll keep testing. If you need more information, please let
me know.
