Package: dvipdfmx
Version: 1:20080607-1
Severity: important

[cf. https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/dvipdfmx/+bug/132601]

Any eps figure that I include with, for instance,

        \includegraphics[width=.49\textwidth]{example.eps}

is moved about 15mm to the left and to the bottom.  Because I regularly
need eps figures in my documents, this makes dvipdfmx pretty much
unusable for me.  If a 2006 "bugfix" is reverted (see attached .diff),
dvipdfmx works correctly.

Cheers, Jens
