[Bug 1790609] Re: Update evince to 3.28.4
I verified evince 3.28.4-0ubuntu1 from bionic-proposed with a broad range of PDF and PS documents, some very simple, some complex with thousands of pages and a variety of fonts and graphics and didn't find any issue.

[Bug 1790609] Re: Update evince to 3.28.4
We did update ghostscript, but I suspect there will be many more issues discovered in the future. Ideally, we'd keep postscript disabled, but I do understand postscript documents are still being used by our users and disabling postscript support would be viewed as a regression. As such, I think we can re- enable it for now but keep the option to turn it off if it becomes problematic again in the future. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to evince in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1790609 Title: Update evince to 3.28.4 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/evince/+bug/1790609/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

@Brian, you have some details on https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/evince/issues/967 the interesting bit is "The fix will be in 9.24" (speaking of ghoscript), that version is in cosmic https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ghostscript/9.24~dfsg+1-0ubuntu1 Note, that --enable-ps is the default in cosmic, upstream changed the default in the update to be on the safe side in case users don't have the fix ghostcript, do using the --enable-ps is not a change over what we have in cosmic already. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to evince in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1790609 Title: Update evince to 3.28.4 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/evince/+bug/1790609/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

[Bug 1790609] Re: Update evince to 3.28.4
I'm a bit confused here. As I understand it this upload uses the build option --enable-ps something that was disabled by upstream due to an unknown (the ghostscript bug is still private) security issue with postscript files. Is this security issue really fixed in Ubuntu 18.04? If so please provide some evidence.
