Bug Description
Since a very recent update (last week or so,) evince will no longer render postscript files. It seems to recognise the number of pages in the file, but each just shows "Loading" for ever.
I think the problem is probably in ghostscript, but evince doesn't report any errors at all to be totally sure. Running under gdb:
Program received signal SIGPIPE, Broken pipe.
0xb7ef97f2 in ?? () from /lib/ld-linux.so.2
Which I assume is the interpreter failing, but this isn't confirmed by evince (see Bug #58141)
I'll attach a sample, but it seems to happen for any postscript file.
