Bug 199592 – app-text/xpdf-3.02 crashing with message: Segmentation fault

• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: RESOLVED NEEDINFO

[Description Joseph 2007-11-18 21:40:09 UTC]

Just upgraded to xpdf 3.02 and trying to open a pdf document xpdf crashes:
Segmentation fault

Previous version 3.01-r8 worked but it didn't recognize /etc/xpdfrc configuration settings; example I added to xpdfrc:
initialZoom 150
psFile                  "kprinter"

The setting are ignored.

Well, read the howto once more because the above doesn't produce anything useful. Thanks again.
