Running evince on any PDF file crashes immediately. This happened on my testing machine today after a dist-upgrade, though evince was not upgraded, so I don't know which package is causing the error. Running evince on any file gives the following error: $ evince /usr/share/doc/debian-policy/policy.pdf.gz (evince:158225): Gdk-WARNING **: 16:16:20.323: The program 'evince' received an X Window System error. This probably reflects a bug in the program. The error was 'BadDrawable (invalid Pixmap or Window parameter)'. (Details: serial 1013 error_code 9 request_code 149 (unknown) minor_code 4) (Note to programmers: normally, X errors are reported asynchronously; that is, you will receive the error a while after causing it. To debug your program, run it with the GDK_SYNCHRONIZE environment variable to change this behavior. You can then get a meaningful backtrace from your debugger if you break on the gdk_x_error() function.) I have no idea how to proceed from here :( Running evince under gdb didn't help, as there are no debugging symbols. Thanks for any help you might be able to offer!
