2016-12-07 20:51:03 Jeremy Bícha description Several eps files, which previously rendered correctly, are not rendered correctly by evince and okular. It looks as though something is wrong with the "transparency" setting, since most of the incorrectly-rendered files have a black background, but the figure can somewhat be made out on top of hte black background. The PDF files I have tested are NOT affected. EPS files that were previously viewable correctly ARE affected. Thank you for your time.

Test Case ========= Use Ubuntu's default eps viewer (evince) to open these two test files. https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libspectre/+bug/1348384/+attachment/4171120/+files/countrate.eps https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libspectre/+bug/1242678/+attachment/3886169/+files/test.eps Rotate test.eps 4 times to ensure that the file still displays correctly when rotated. countrate.eps should not have a black background. Other Info ========== Instead of using the fix from 15.04, 16.04 and 16.10, I chose to use the upstream's version of fix-document-rotation.patch included in 0.2.8 and in 17.04. (fix-document-rotation.patch was the only change made in the original SRU) Regression Potential ==================== Low. This fix is now in upstream's 0.2.8 and is in Debian and Ubuntu 17.04. By the way, the 17.04 fix was briefly broken by a ghostscript security fix but the 16.04/16.10 fix was not affected. For more details about that, see bug 1647917.
