Salvatore,
Here is what I found:
- On Jessie, evince segfaults on AIM-864.ps with both ghostscript
packages at versions 9.06~dfsg-2+deb8u2 and 9.06~dfsg-2+deb8u3
(this is clearly different for me than what is in the bug reports)
- On Wheezy, evince renders AIM-864.ps with ghostscript packages at
version 9.06~dfsg-2+deb8u2, but segfaults with ghostscript packages
at version 9.06~dfsg-2+deb8u3
- In all cases, gv renders the document correctly
I believe that the short answer to your question is, "yes the same issue
occurs in wheezy."
Do you plan to address this issue, or is there something that I can to
do help speed the process along?
Regards,
-Roberto
