--- Begin Message ---Package: xpdf Version: 3.03-3 I thought this was Bug#640967, but I guess it's something else. Consider the PDF file at http://www.state-machine.com/arm/Building_bare-metal_ARM_with_GNU.pdf When I open it, I get page after blank page containong only images and background shading. Ignoring text in logos, the first "normal" text I see are the headings "[1-1]" through "[1-6]" on page 6. Blue link underlines are also visible, but not the text they are underlining. I think line 31 of the 3.03-3 /etc/xpdf/xpdfrc has a typo: it says "fontFile Helvetic", which I thonk should have a trailing a. But fixing that doesn't change it. It does display on startup a number (72) of copies of Error: Unknown config file command '{0:t}' ({1:t}:{2:d}) followed by a single error message Error: Expected the default config, but wasn't able to find it, or it isn't a Dictionary These are emitted while reading the /usr/share/xpdf/xpdfrc-$LANGUAGE files. They appear to correspond to the displayCIDFontTT lines; when I comment that out of /usr/share/xpdf/xpdfrc-chinese-simplified, no error message is emitted until -chinese-traditional is read. A huge number of errors appear while reading the -japanese file; I haven't tracked those down. The final error line happens shortly after opening the actual .pdf file, well after the xpdfrc file is read. (There is no ~/.xpdfrc.) The sequence of system calls leading up to that does not exactly fill me with confidence about the code quality: stat64($file) - Okay, I see, make sure it's not a device node or something open($file) = 4 fstat64(4) - double check type, find size = 820466 fstat64(4) - why again? _llseek(4, 819200, SEEK_SET) - Seek to END-1266; no idea why read(4, buf, 1266) = 1266 fstat64(4) - why again? _llseek(4, 819200, SEEK_SET) - Huh? We just did that. read(4, buf, 4096) = 1266. Interesting that the previous read knew the expected size, but this doesn't. _llseek(4, 0, SEEK_SET) - Ah, about to start for real. read(4, buf, 4096) = 4096 _llseek(4, 4096, SEEK_SET) - Dude, we're already there! _llseek(4, 4096, SEEK_SET) _llseek(4, 4096, SEEK_SET) _llseek(4, 4096, SEEK_SET) _llseek(4, 4096, SEEK_SET) _llseek(4, 4096, SEEK_SET) - This is getting monotonous read(4, buf, 4096) = 4096 _llseek(4, 8192, SEEK_SET) _llseek(4, 8192, SEEK_SET) _llseek(4, 8192, SEEK_SET) - Again, what's the point? _llseek(4, 0, SEEK_SET) - Back to the beginning? Make up your mind! read(4, buf, 4096) = 4096 _llseek(4, 4096, SEEK_SET) _llseek(4, 4096, SEEK_SET) read(4, buf, 4096) = 4096 _llseek(4, 0, SEEK_SET) - A *third* time?? read(4, buf, 4096) = 4096 _llseek(4, 4096, SEEK_SET) read(4, buf, 4096) = 4096 _llseek(4, 0, SEEK_SET) - FOUR??? read(4, buf, 4096) write(2, "Expected the default config, but wasn't able to find it, or it isn't a Dictionary", 81) write(2, "\n", 1) _llseek(4, 4096, SEEK_SET) read(4, buf, 4096) _llseek(4, 0, SEEK_SET) - Five. This is just getting stupid... read(4, buf, 4096) _llseek(4, 4096, SEEK_SET) read(4, buf, 4096) _llseek(4, 0, SEEK_SET) - Six. I think I'm going insane. read(4, buf, 4096) _llseek(4, 4096, SEEK_SET) read(4, buf, 4096) _llseek(4, 0, SEEK_SET) - Seven. I'll be in the corner holding myself and rocking back and forth. read(4, buf, 4096) _llseek(4, 200704, SEEK_SET) - Hello, that's different! read(4, buf, 4096) _llseek(4, 0, SEEK_SET) - Eight. Danny, I'm coming! read(4, buf, 4096) _llseek(4, 741376, SEEK_SET) read(4, buf, 4096) _llseek(4, 0, SEEK_SET) - Nine. It rubs the lotion on its skin. It does this whenever it is told. read(4, buf, 4096) _llseek(4, 200704, SEEK_SET) read(4, buf, 4096) _llseek(4, 0, SEEK_SET) - Ten. Why so serious? read(4, buf, 4096) _lseek(4, 741376, SEEK_SET) - Weren't we just here a few lines above? read(4, buf, 4096) _llseek(4, 0, SEEK_SET) - Eleven. Ours goes to eleven! read(4, buf, 4096) __lseek(4, 204800, SEEK_SET) read(4, buf, 4096) _llseek(4, 0, SEEK_SET) - Twelve. read(4, buf, 4096) _lseek(4, 741376, SEEK_SET) - And now we're back *here* for the third time. read(4, buf, 4096) There are a total of 320 seeks back to 0 and re-reads of the first 4K of the PDF file. That is, in case my preceding comments didn't make it clear, quite insane. However, hopefully all these completely unnecessary system calls will at least provide a place to stick a code breakpoint to figure out what's causing that error message.
