I have added a test case to the bug description.
** Description changed:
Binary package hint: evince
When I double click a PDF file in Nautilus, Evince opens and shows a
window showing "Loading...". However, the loading never completes. When
I close the window and double click the file again in Nautilus, Evince
loads the file properly. This used to happen __sometimes__ in the past,
but it recently occurrs virtually always. As far as I can tell this
problem occurs with all sorts of PDF files only (i.e. it is not related
to a specific file). I have Ubuntu 8.04 on a Lenovo T61:
lsb_release -rd
Description: Ubuntu 8.04.1
Release: 8.04
apt-cache policy evince
evince:
Installed: 2.22.2-0ubuntu1
Candidate: 2.22.2-0ubuntu1
Version table:
*** 2.22.2-0ubuntu1 0
500 http://ch.archive.ubuntu.com hardy-updates/main Packages
100 /var/lib/dpkg/status
2.22.1.1-0ubuntu1 0

+ TEST CASE:
+ 1) Open a pdf file with evince.
+ 2) Move the mouse while evince displays "Loading..." with a grey background.
+ 3) Observe a blank white page with "Loading..." appear, which stays like this
indefinitely (unless the window is resized or a new page is selected). This is
the bug which is present on Hardy in evince 2.22.2-0ubuntu1 and prior.
