** Description changed:
Package: evince
Version: 3.34.1-1
In the up-to-date Ubuntu 19.10 "eoan", Evince crashes when searching in
a particular long PDF file. I open the file, press Ctrl+F to open a
search string box, and type in some string that occurs in the document.
Then, Evince starts searching, jumps to the first occurrence, and
displays a thin progress bar while continuing searching. Evince doesn't
terminate: about the middle of the search process, evince crashes:
$ evince .pdf
munmap_chunk(): invalid pointer
Abgebrochen (Speicherabzug geschrieben)
Unfortunately, I cannot share my PDF file due to legal reasons.
However, the two files mentioned in
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/evince/issues/1250 would do:
- https://www.jaapsch.net/psion/pdffiles/hd6301-3_handbook.pdf
- https://www.people.vcu.edu/~rhammack/BookOfProof/Main.pdf
Searching for "the" (without the quotation marks) in any of these
- documents reproducibly crashes them. I cannot debug Evince myself (and
- a package such as evince-dbg seems to be unavailable anyway) and would
- therefore kindly ask the Ubuntu folks to attract the attention of the
- developers to this issue (or bugfix it or update Evince if a solution is
- already available).
