Now confirmed, using the PDF kindly attached in #3. There actually is some output, the output file `Plan.pdf' has been created and is --- slowly --- relentlessly growing. It grew to c.68MiB by letting pdfposter(1) run for 10mins (real-time) solid, fully occupying one of my cores (100% of one CPU). However, the memory usage did_not_ increase. When I finally gave up and ^C'ed, I got:
$ pdfposter --scale=4 Micro-Magic_Plan_2016_V2.pdf Plan.pdf ^CTraceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/bin/pdfposter", line 9, in <module> load_entry_point('pdftools.pdfposter==0.6.0', 'console_scripts', 'pdfposter')() File "/usr/share/pdfposter/pdftools/pdfposter/cmd.py", line 129, in run main(opts, *args) File "/usr/share/pdfposter/pdftools/pdfposter/__init__.py", line 340, in main outpdf.write(open(outfilename, 'wb')) File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/PyPDF2/pdf.py", line 501, in write obj.writeToStream(stream, key) File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/PyPDF2/generic.py", line 785, in writeToStream self[NameObject("/Length")] = NumberObject(len(self._data)) File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/PyPDF2/pdf.py", line 2771, in _getData newdata.write(b_(operator)) KeyboardInterrupt $ Unsurprisingly, the output `Plan.pdf' is incomplete and/or corrupt. I do_not_ know whether it would complete if I had the patience and disc space to let in churn away. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1846464 Title: pdfposter hangs with no output To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/pdfposter/+bug/1846464/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
