Version: 1.1-20111018-1
Severity: important

Run the following line, then hit 'Enter', or mouse click
on either "OK" or "Cancel":

Version: 1:3.1.8+dfsg-0.1
Severity: normal
Double output:

hello 1
hello 1

The cause is some extra code that somehow got in, see attached
More notes...
It seem I can save a .PDF successfully, if it's saved with .PNG compression.
