Package: papers
Version: 49.2-3
Severity: important
I read that papers is a better evince, but when I tried to open a PDF
with it like this:
[wohler at olgas books (olgas:*%)]$ papers Astronomy-OP.pdf
I didn't see the PDF that I expected to see. The command just
appeared to hang until I hit C-c.
Instead, I got a dozen of these in the log:
