Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: pstoedit
When creating eps-files in gutsy (LaTex, Matlab, etc.) and converting them to a
different format like svg (also xfig etc.) with pstoedit, pstoedit gets stuck
and gs will take up 100% CPU-Time.
I suppose its reither a bug in the new ghostscript since everything works fine
with gs-gpl and pstoedit in feisty.
But, because i haven't seen this problem anywhere else then in pstoedit, i'll
post it here.
There is a small workaround that works quite well with some restrictions.
1. You have to reconvert the eps-file with "pstoedit -f gs:epswrite file.eps
file2.eps"
2. Then you can convert the second eps-file to an svg-file with "pstoedit -f
plot-svg file2.eps file2.svg"
This is usefull, if you need the LaTex-equation in Inkscape.
It won't work well, if you created an eps-file in matlab.
The svg-file (after 1. and 2.) will lose all Text-Information and won't show
any Text.
Any more suggestions?
