Package: xpdf Version: 3.02-14 Followup-For: Bug #631109 This version of xpdf fails to have the following desirable property: For every name $file, if $file exists then "xpdf $file" opens $file. For example, if both $file and $file.gz exist then "xpdf $file" currently opens $file.gz instead. Below is a patch that restores this property.
(ps. migration to this new version may also be eased if zxpdf were a
symlink to xpdf.)
Thanks,
Ken
