From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.1) Gecko/20020827 Description of problem: Red Hat 8's plugger configuration gives preference to using gv for displaying pdf files even if xpdf is also available despite the fact that xpdf tends to do a better job of displaying pdf files. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.whereis acroread (remove acroread if it exists) 2.open mozilla 3.go to http://www.tivo.com/images/manuals/installguide_series2/index.pdf Actual Results: Get a pdf viewer which displays four blank pages Expected Results: First page should display the "Index" title page and the remaining three pages should display text that make up the index. Additional info: I have run into several other examples of xpdf performing where gv fails. I can append those examples to this bug if needed. Switching the order of gv and xpdf in the pluggerrc greatly improves the functionality of mozilla.
It's fixed in 4.0-19.
