I don`t understand while a bug known for so long seems to be still present in Xubuntu 13.04. If ghostscript is the problem why is the buggy version still in use? Or do I encounter a different problem?
Additional, the workaround (comment #11) given above is not effective (at least not for me): $ echo $LANG en_US.UTF-8 evince <name>.ps "EvinceDocument-CRITICAL **: ev_document_misc_pixbuf_from_surface: assertion `surface' failed" export LANG=C $ echo $LANG C evince <name>.ps "EvinceDocument-CRITICAL **: ev_document_misc_pixbuf_from_surface: assertion `surface' failed" Is there an effective workaround known (commandliner would be appreciated)? Any fixed/improved packages available via PPA (if not generally)? Or are users forced to use gv (it still works - so many users may use it as workaround - but I really would like to use evince for PS viewing)? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to evince in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1159931 Title: Evince not rendering Postscript files To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/gs-gpl/+bug/1159931/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
