Re: [Bug 1812754]
I just saw this. Sorry for the delay. I use the version distributed with my Linux, and follow the versions there. I'm never going to be at the bleeding edge, and I don't want to mess with the support I get. May I suggest that it's easier for you to do a quick load of the two samples I suggested than it is for me to do an unsupported upgrade and keep following thereafter. This is especially true if you run it under Ubuntu or anything where you can use a command line like I did. This is a VERY quick way to reproduce the problem or confirm it has been fixed.

If it helps I don't think its specific to using the command line. I'm having the same problem of random blank pages being added using the normal GUI version. I think its a more widespread fundamental problem. This seems to mostly happen when there are a lot of pages and images involved.

No blanks here. I also tried with the gtk2 UI backend as that is what Xfce uses. Could you link to the Ubuntu bug report? You can input it to the "See also" field.

I have a better idea. Instead of inventing reasons for me to mess up my settings why don't YOU try to confirm it. I sent all the stuff you'd need to try this. If it does not add blank pages for you with whatever settings you have, go ahead and mark it invalid.

Sorry, I do not have a spare machine to download the software. When I first reported this to Ubuntu I got immediate confirmation, and they suggested I re-submit to you. If you have the latest software, please give it a try. It will either fail or not in a hurry. Maybe 5 minutes max will any downloading and directory prep you decide to do.
