Description Samik 2016-09-11 13:50:48 UTC 
I can open a particular PS file with evince (v3.14.1 - distributed with Bunsen Linux, a debian port [https://www.bunsenlabs.org/]), but when I click on the 'Search' icon, it crashes.

The specific PS file is located at: ftp://ftp.cis.upenn.edu/pub/treebank/doc/tagguide.ps.gz

It crashes because the PS backend does not support searching.  It was fixed by disabling the find button for unsupported backends in 3.14.2 and later.

Thanks for the quick update - need to ask the folks to update the distro.
