Package: xpdf-reader
Version: 3.01-9
Severity: grave

The pdf at http://travel.state.gov/pdf/ds-5504.pdf can reliably crash
xpdf, kpdf, and evince when I try to print it.  This may be a problem
of the interaction between the pdf viewers and cups, although since all
3 share the segfault and acroread doesn't, I am inclined to think it's
a problem of the viewers.  I have marked it grave, as segfaults usually
make me worry about arbitrary code execution and the like.  If you feel
that the severity isn't justified, feel free to lower the priority.

I'll clone this to evince and kpdf once I get a bug number back from the
BTS.

Thanks,

Hello all,

It appears after some investigation by many good people that this wass
actually a bug in a glibc routine that pdf2ps triggered, and not
actually a problem with your packages.  Sorry for the noise, everyone.
