Public bug reported: Evince crashes when opening the same pdf file repeatedly and thereby refreshing the view on this file.
Steps to reproduce: 1. Get a PDF file. For example http://www.adobe.com/products/acrobat/pdfs/pdfaccess.pdf works. 2. Open a terminal 3. Type in: $ evince pdfaccess.pdf & 4. Watch evince start and load the PDF-file. Switch focus back to the terminal and go back to Step 3 and repeat. When doing Step 3 like 25 times, evince eventually crashes with "Segmentation fault". Curiously, on my system for this PDF, exactly 25 repetitions are needed. For different PDF files, e.g. only 7 repetitions are needed, but for each file the number of repetitions needed stays constant. This is Ubuntu Hardy with Evince 2.22.2 ** Affects: evince (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: Invalid -- Evince crashes with Segfault when opening the same PDF repeatedly https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/243222 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
