Package: texlive-base-bin
Version: 2007.dfsg.1-2
Severity: normal
xdvi truncates some wide documents on the right, e.g.
/usr/share/pari/doc/refcard.dvi from the pari-doc package and
/usr/share/doc/gdb/refcard.dvi.gz from the gdb package.
-- Package-specific info:
If you report an error when running one of the TeX-related binaries
(latex, pdftex, metafont,...), or if the bug is related to bad or wrong
output, please include a MINIMAL example input file that produces the
error in your report. Don't forget to also include minimal examples of
other files that are needed, e.g. bibtex databases. Often it also helps
to include the logfile. Please, never send included pictures!
If your example file isn't short or produces more than one page of
output (except when multiple pages are needed to show the problem),
you can probably minimize it further. Instructions on how to do that
can be found at
http://www.latex-einfuehrung.de/mini-en.html (english)
or

Not surprising, xdvi does not know about paper sizes etc. You either
have to specify the papersize or resize xdvi properly. That cannot be
done automatically because the DVI format does not contain page size
specifications.
Closing this bug.
Best wishes

CURRY MALLET (n.)
A large wooden or rubber cub which poachers use to despatch cats or
other game which they can only sell to Indian resturants. For
particulary small cats the price obtainable is not worth the cost of
expending ammunition.
