Bug Description
Binary package hint: rubber
Since texlive 2008 there is support for synctex in texlive.
Thus there is no need to compile tex-files to .dvi first and later to convert them to .pdf,
to have feature like forward and backwards search.
It would be nice if this will work using rubber, too.

Now that Evince supports SyncTex and Gedit gained a SyncTeX plugin (to be in Ubuntu Maverick) this should be put in.
It’s only a parameter to pdflatex, lualatex and xelatex. Namely » -synctex=1 «
As a workaround, it would be cool if this worked as a modeline:
% rubber: set program xelatex -synctex=1
It doesn’t now.
