Bugzilla Bug 125430

For whatever reason, the latest kde-base/kpdf-3.5.1-r2 rotates all KPDF
rendered images embedded inside PDFs at 90 degree angles. The bug does not
exist in kde-base/kpdf-3.5.1-r1.

Might be a poppler problem, can you provide an example pdf that shows that
behaviour?

I had thought that all images were displayed this way, but as I search for some
links to post, I found that a few aren't, though may are. Here are some links
to PDFs as well as links to images to how an example page renders on my system.

Image of Page 17: http://putfile.com/pic.php?pic=3/6613231276.jpg&s=x10

On the last link is an example of Page 17, where the images in the main
document are not rotated, but the lower left image in the footer is.

I have these installed:
[I--] [  ] app-text/poppler-0.5.0-r4 (0)
[I--] [  ] app-text/poppler-bindings-0.5.0 (0)

However, I tried recompiling the problem version KPDF with each of the
following, which resulted in no change at all:
app-text/poppler-0.4.3-r4
app-text/poppler-0.5.0-r5

Also, I discovered what may be a related bug. This latest r2 version of KPDF
crashes altogether when trying to load the following PDF, but
kde-base/kpdf-3.5.1-r1 does not crash and loads it correctly:
http://theory.lcs.mit.edu/~rivest/LiskovRivestWagner-TweakableBlockCiphers.pdf

The crash I get seems to be either one of:

Error (62272): Unexpected end of file in flate stream
Error (62785): Unexpected end of file in flate stream
kpdf: Fatal IO error: client killed
KCrash: Application 'kpdf' crashing...

--OR--

*** glibc detected *** double free or corruption (out): 0x082c8080 ***
KCrash: Application 'kpdf' crashing...

Hmm they all works fine here, not rotated nor they crash.

Which version of poppler are you using right now?

Using:
[I--] [  ] app-text/poppler-0.5.0-r4 (0) -cairo +jpeg +zlib

Build poppler with -zlib or upgrade to a newer version (which has no zlib
support at all).

Arches: Please stabilize the bugfix-revision poppler-0.5.0-r5

It fixes some bugs(like this one) from -r4 and I do not want a lot of dupes.

I just want to make clear what I said in comment #2. At that time I had tried
every poppler in my portage tree, recompiling kpdf each time as well. These
versions were

app-text/poppler-0.4.3-r4
app-text/poppler-0.5.0-r4 (current)
app-text/poppler-0.5.0-r5

Granted 0.4.3-r4 and 0.5.0-r4 were done so with +zlib, 0.5.0-r5 does not have a
zlib flag, so I had already tried a version without zlib. To double check, I
checked the configure output and it does say "use zlib: no".

Now, I went ahead and tried recompiling with the other two versions that have
the zlib option without zlib (USE=-zlib), along kpdf, as you suggested, but the
problems persist.

I should have synced before initially posting, because I noticed
app-text/poppler-0.5.1 is there that I didn't have, which also has no zlib
flag. I synced and I am now in the process of trying to get this version
tested, and it compiles fine. However KPDF compilation is bailing on configure:

checking for poppler-qt >= 0.3.1... configure: error: --with-poppler was given,
but test for poppler failed

If I can get it compiled, I'll report on whether using poppler-0.5.1 fixes the
rotate problem. Again, building without zlib in poppler does not appear to
solve either rotation or crashing problem, at least for those in portage <
0.5.1.

I have now successfully compiled app-text/poppler-0.5.0-r5 by doing this
http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=125248#c2.

The installed components on my system now look like this:
app-text/poppler-0.5.1  +jpeg
app-text/poppler-bindings-0.5.1  -cairo -gtk +qt
kde-base/kpdf-3.5.1-r2  +arts -debug +kdeenablefinal -kdexdeltas -xinerama

However, things actually got worse. Not only are the images still rotated, but
when trying to click through a page from a PDF with an embedded rotated image,
KPDF crashes whenever it reaches the page to load it in the main view.

Is there a "bugfix-revision poppler-0.5.0-r5" that's not in portage? I have
tried every ebuild version that is in portage right now and all cause these
problems on my system.

CORRECTION:
Comment #8 should instead being "I have now successfully compiled
app-text/poppler-0.5.1 by doing this
http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=125248#c2."

I wrote the wrong version of poppler in that sentence. Sorry...

I fixed both the image rotation and crash bugs with by removing "-Os" from
CFLAGS for the app-text/poppler package. I tried with both newer poppler
(0.5.1) that doesn't have zlib and later poppler (0.5.0-r4) with zlib built in
and both work fine. This particular problem doesn't involve zlib but this CFLAG
option should probably be stripped or reduced to something functional for
poppler ebuilds.

sparc stable.

I added the -Os -> -O2 replacing in the 0.5.0-r4 and -r5 ebuilds. Stabilization
of -r5 because of the zlib issue is still needed!

stable on ppc64

Stable on ppc

arm done

stable on alpha

hppa done.

x86 done (X_X)

stable on amd64

mips team: do your work!

By the way, it is better to have no package stable at all, then to mark
packages stable late. Because usually old stable versions suffer from bugs like
this one.

I suggest you to drop the stable mips keyword.

All done here.
