Bug Description
Binary package hint: evince
When I double click a PDF file in Nautilus, Evince opens and shows a window showing "Loading...". However, the loading never completes. When I close the window and double click the file again in Nautilus, Evince loads the file properly. This used to happen __sometimes__ in the past, but it recently occurrs virtually always. As far as I can tell this problem occurs with all sorts of PDF files only (i.e. it is not related to a specific file). I have Ubuntu 8.04 on a Lenovo T61:
lsb_release -rd
Description: Ubuntu 8.04.1
Release: 8.04
apt-cache policy evince
evince:
Installed: 2.22.2-0ubuntu1
Candidate: 2.22.2-0ubuntu1
Version table:
*** 2.22.2-0ubuntu1 0
500 http://
100 /var/lib/
2.
500 http://
TEST CASE:
1) Open a pdf file with evince.
2) Move the mouse while evince displays "Loading..." with a grey background.
3) Observe a blank white page with "Loading..." appear, which stays like this indefinitely (unless the window is resized or a new page is selected). This is the bug which is present on Hardy in evince 2.22.2-0ubuntu1 and prior.
