Evince crashes when documents are frequently reloaded
Last modified: 2005-10-17 16:05:32 UTC
Steps to reproduce: 1. load a document (tested with PDF, PS ) 2. Hold down (Ctrl+R) so lots of reloads happen: Stack trace: from gdb: 0xb723b9a1 in g_type_check_instance_is_a () from /usr/lib/libgobject-2.0.so.0 (gdb) where
+ Trace 63529
Other information: This is evince 0.4.0 build from source on ubnunty breezy (with stock poppler 0.4.2)
There is another problem with DVI files where every reload causes a crash (so it might not be related) example stacktace (sorry no debugging symbols) is here: *** glibc detected *** double free or corruption (!prev): 0x08461550 *** Program received signal SIGABRT, Aborted.
+ Trace 63530
