Description Richard W.M. Jones 2010-10-01 12:35:34 UTC

Description of problem:

$ evince /tmp/0.5.kemari-kvm-forum-2010.pdf

evince hangs for a while, then produces these errors:

GConf Error: Failed to contact configuration server; some possible causes are that you need to enable TCP/IP networking for ORBit, or you have stale NFS locks due to a system crash. See http://projects.gnome.org/gconf/ for information. (Details — 1: GetIOR failed: Timeout was reached)

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

evince-2.32.0-1.fc14.x86_64
glib2-2.26.0-2.fc14.x86_64

(These are the latest versions of both from updates-testing
as far as I can see).

How reproducible:

Always.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Grab the PDF file from
http://www.linux-kvm.org/wiki/images/0/0d/0.5.kemari-kvm-forum-2010.pdf
2. Open it using 'evince 0.5.kemari-kvm-forum-2010.pdf'
3.

Actual results:

evince hangs.

Expected results:

Should open the document.

Additional info:

This worked fine with previous glib2 (glib2-2.25.15-1.fc14.x86_64).

Comment 1 Richard W.M. Jones 2010-10-01 18:30:30 UTC

This version breaks evince:
glib2-2.26.0-2.fc14.x86_64

Doing a yum downgrade to this version fixes evince immediately:
glib2-2.25.15-1.fc14.x86_64

Comment 2 Matthias Clasen 2010-10-08 20:40:59 UTC

I believe this is fixed with dconf-0.5.1-1.fc14.
Please reopen if you still see it.

Comment 3 Richard W.M. Jones 2010-10-08 21:04:48 UTC

evince is certainly back to normal for me with the
latest F14 updates.
