Description of problem: When keeping evince open all the time and continuously opening pdf documents all evince instances crash. I'm not sure of the number of document to open but it's something between 10 and 20. I'm writing a large latex document and after every compile the make file opens the pdf again which causes evince to reload the pdf. Freetype turns up at the top of the backtrace so I filled it against freetype. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): cairo-1.6.4-1.fc9.x86_64 evince-2.22.2-1.fc9.x86_64 freetype-2.3.5-4.fc9.x86_64
Created attachment 308919 [details] Stacktrace from crash
Created attachment 308920 [details] Stacktrace from crash with cairo debug symbols enabled
Reproducing it: * Load evince in gdb and start it * Open a pdf document in evince * Run a loop like this to open the pdf a lot of time: while sleep 2; do evince doc.pdf; done In less then a minute I got a crash, it not reproduceable with a random document it can provide the document I just. I can't post it here because it's my master thesis which isn't finished yet, I can mail to someone to do some tests. That's not problem.
I have also gotten this crash many times, with matching stacktrace to yours. However, I routinely get this with as few as 2 PDF documents open at once (again, I don't see a reproduceable method of getting it, although it seems to happen more often with very large PDFs (>300 pages)).
This message is a reminder that Fedora 9 is nearing its end of life. Approximately 30 (thirty) days from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 9. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '9'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 9's end of life. Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we may not be able to fix it before Fedora 9 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora please change the 'version' of this bug to the applicable version. If you are unable to change the version, please add a comment here and someone will do it for you. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete. The process we are following is described here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping
Fedora 9 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2009-07-10. Fedora 9 is no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug. If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.
