Binary package hint: evince

If you create sheet music with Lilypond the vertical bars are too thick in Evince. Especially the bars are much more thicker when you print it and thats what you normally do with sheet music. If you print the same PDF (created by Lilypond) with Acrobat Reader the bars are correct. So it is no bug in Lilypond but in Evince or maybe in poppler.

I added a sample Lilypond file and the corresponding PDF file. To reproduce it, print it with Acrobat Reader and then with Evince and you will see the difference. I have also added a screenshot with both applications zoomed in. The difference in the screenshots are marginal, but the difference in the hardcopy are huge.
