Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: evince
When trying to view a PDF file received from my accountant, I found that
evince did not display more than a fraction of the text, and it was very
sluggish, running at nearly 100 % CPU. I soon received a system warning
about my root file system being almost full, and on examination I found
that my /tmp directory had some 113,000 files:
p...@barbaren:~$ ls -l /tmp/?????? | head

Starting evince from a console produces an enormous amount of repeating
output:
some font thing failed
Error: Found a bad table definition on true type definition, trying to
continue...
