Racy 5.5. Another bug :
Save http://launchpadlibrarian.net/13579707/N9Y4AAAAMAAJ.pdf
Open that pdf file with epdfview from shell.
Code: | Error (74600): Error in JPX stream |
And takes 60% CPU to go to the next page.
See https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=15629
epdfview is not developped anymore ? http://trac.emma-soft.com/epdfview/ down.
Any better pdf reader ?

The problem isn't with epdfview - it's with the version of libpoppler that it uses.
I didn't check Racy, but Wary 5.5 uses the very old libpoppler-7 and shows the same symptoms as you reported.
However, Slacko 5.5 uses libpoppler-26 and handles your test PDF fine.

So why didnt you report it here ?

linuxcbon & rcrsn51,
I can confirm that: all the console pdfto* utilities are of no use because the libpoppler.so.19 library is not there.
Working on it now.
musher0
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Ok, here's a freshly compiled drop-in replacement for whatever poppler-ish material exists in wary 5.5 (untried in racy 5.5). This means it should replace all the pdfto*, pdfinfo, etc., utilities and the corresponding libraries. This version, poppler-0.22.2 is dated March 11, 2013 (10 days ago). It contains the executables and the corresponding libraries.
Please download from : http://limelinx.com/c617i Should you wish to preview the contents, a directory and file listing of this *.pet archive is attached below in g'zipped text format.
References : http://poppler.freedesktop.org/ (author's web site); http://poppler.freedesktop.org/poppler-0.22.2.tar.gz (source code)
Enjoy!

Dillo's limitations won't prevent you from visiting either here or here and downloading the full browser of your choice.
(either with Dillo or a download manager such as Uget or Wget)
This also works with Mozilla's official builds.
(Haven't tried any of the others.)

I run racy 5.5 from usb stick.
I install skype 2.1 over install puppy package.
When I log in skype it won't work. Just freeze and keep skype logo (arrow which go in circle) running, but nothing else... |
In wary 5.5 I use successfully skype 2.2.0.35. You can download the tar.bz2 archive from my shared link:
http://www.4shared.com/file/StyW-ofz/skype_static-22035tar.html
Click on the archive, select all and extract to /usr/local. Then copy in /usr/bin the binary skype from the directory you extracted. From /usr/bin you can create a link to the desktop or launch "skype" in console. I have to say that I install from puppy3 repository qt 3.3.8 but I don't know if it is necessary.

I am not seeing a problem with libpoppler in Wary 5.5. All of the pdfto* tools work correctly.
I believe that the only issue here is updating libpoppler to handle linuxcbon's particular PDF file. All you need are:
Code: | libpoppler-glib.so.8 -> libpoppler-glib.so.8.6.0
libpoppler.so.35 -> libpoppler.so.35.0.0 |
Then epdfview can be compiled against them to make a version that reads his PDF.

Barry, for privacy, can you do this ? Code: | rm -r /root/.adobe/
rm -r /root/.macromedia/
ln -s /dev/null /root/.adobe
ln -s /dev/null /root/.macromedia | = avoiding cookies from flashplayer

Doesn't load in zathura either, but in foxitreader, it's ok.

linuxcbon,
to be on the safe side, should I run these commands before remastering *any* puppy? No side effects?

Concerning the pdf issue, I informed Pemasu that his precise
3.8.3.1 and his wheezy 3.5.2.5 also have problems. I thought his
reply was interesting:
http://murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?p=693616&sid=aaaa3bf66ee8ef9295057eaf26825c52
To get a working reference that handles the graphical illustrations
ok he used Google chrome browser instead of slacko.
