Description rhamph 2006-01-27 08:09:59 UTC 
Distribution: Debian testing/unstable
Package: evince
Severity: major
Version: GNOME2.10.2 unspecified
Gnome-Distributor: Debian
Synopsis: Crash selecting from slow PDF
Bugzilla-Product: evince
Bugzilla-Component: general
Bugzilla-Version: unspecified
BugBuddy-GnomeVersion: 2.0 (2.10.1)
Description:
Description of the crash:
Using Select All on the PDF attached to Bug #314847 causes a crash

Steps to reproduce the crash:
1. Load http://bugzilla.gnome.org/attachment.cgi?id=51717
2. Select All (Ctrl+A)
3. Wait (evince is very slow on this file)
4. If necessary unselect and reselect until it crashes

Expected Results:
No crash?

How often does this happen?


Additional Information:
Presumably this is the same bug exhibited in #314847.  However, that
report does not mention crashing.  My hope is that the stack trace
collected by Bug Buddy will help to illuminate the cause of the crash.

Comment 1 rhamph 2006-01-27 08:27:06 UTC 
As an aside, I'd estimate atleast 25% of PDFs I look at have this problem (the same one mentioned in Bug #314847).  Would that make it qualify as "high impact" and thus "Urgent"?

Another example page is http://www.cs.utk.edu/~plank/plank/papers/CS-96-332.html
However, repeatedly selecting the Problem Specification paragraph of the second page seems to provoke the bug faster.

libpoppler bug, not evince.

Thanks for the bug report. This particular bug has already been reported into our bug tracking system, but please feel free to report any further bugs you find.
