Package: gv
Version: 1:3.7.4-1+b1
Severity: normal

If gv is started with a -geometry which is bigger than the vertical
extent of the screen, and with certain -scale,
    gv -geometry 600x2000 -scale=1.1 
/usr/share/doc/texlive-doc/latex/tlc2/rosette.ps

then it hangs not drawing the image or widgets and not responding to
window manager close.

It seems to be on any .ps file.  rosette.ps from texlive-lang-english
above is just an example.  The -scale is necessary to provoke the
problem for me.  If omitted or one of the builtins like -scale 2 then
it's ok.

I think this is a regression.  I struck it on a slightly too big
-geometry which I had but which worked before.
