Bug#669608: evince: unusable UI and crashes

[Valentin Lorentz]

Package: evince
Version: 3.3.90-1
Severity: important
Tags: upstream

Dear Maintainer,

Since latest update in Sid, evince has bugs which makes menu or printing
unusable. More over, some actions (such as closing the "Print" dialog)
make it crash with:

(evince:12732): Gdk-WARNING **: The program 'evince' received an X
Window System error. This probably reflects a bug in the program.
The error was 'BadWindow (invalid Window parameter)'.
  (Details: serial 23509 error_code 3 request_code 152 minor_code 3)
  (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 tryed to upgrade evince to the version in experimental, the bugs are
exactly the same.

As an attachment: a screenshot of this issue.

Regards,
Valentin Lorentz
