Comment 9 for bug 1256414

Thanks for the reminder.
I can confirm that with the current Xubuntu 14.04.1 LTS,
evince 3.10.3 has no longer rendering problems when
rotating a document.

While this is nice, it looks to me as it was solved by chance.
I think to improve a distro users should get the impression
that bugs are cared for and solutions are actively looked for.
When I as an experienced sytsem administrator fight to stay
motivated reporting bugs (which is the case, unfortunately),
there is a problem.

Ubuntu needs the desktop - and with Unity and its still lacking
configuration options, the little care for even the LTS project
and the current focus this is not the right attitude.

Ubuntu/Debian and derivatives may still be the best desktop
solution - but in former times the product was more stable
and functional than today - despite the enormous advancements.

The bug can be closed - but the bug tracking can be shown to
not be effective just with this little (and boring) example.
