Package: gv
Version: 1:3.6.1-7
Severity: normal

According to the documentation, gv should refresh
the document when sent the HUP signal. This feature
no longer works in the current version--instead gv 
terminates upon receiving the signal (see below).

$ gv tmp.ps &
[1] 25069
$ killall -HUP gv
$ 
[1]+  Hangup                  gv tmp.ps
$ 

I use this feature quite a lot and I'm sad to see it 
broken in the newer versions of gv. 

Regards,
Chris
