Bug#434037: kdvi crashes when rendering page of makor (hebrew) text. xdvi renders correctly

[Nigel Pegram <ndpegram@gmail.com>]

Package: kdvi
Version: 4:3.5.5-3
Severity: important


KDVI crashes consistently when displaying a DVI file generated via lyx. Pages without makor text display with no problems, but a sigsegv is generated when trying to show a page with the makor hebrew text. The same DVI file displays perfectly in xdvi.
