Package: libgs9 Version: 9.06~dfsg-2+deb8u3 Severity: grave Tags: security Justification: renders package unusable
Hello! I had a bad surprise today in jessie. After the security update: [UPGRADE] libgs9:amd64 9.06~dfsg-2+deb8u1 -> 9.06~dfsg-2+deb8u3 [UPGRADE] libgs9-common:amd64 9.06~dfsg-2+deb8u1 -> 9.06~dfsg-2+deb8u3 I was unable to use zathura or evince (maybe other PS viewers are affected): $ zathura foo.eps warning: Failed to loads bookmarks. invalidaccess -7 error: Rendering failed (page 1) $ evince foo.eps invalidaccess -7 invalidaccess -7 Segmentation fault After downgrading back to libgs9/9.06~dfsg-2+deb8u1 and libgs9-common/9.06~dfsg-2+deb8u1, everything is back to normal and the two PS viewers work again. What went wrong? If this is indeed a regression (as it seems to be), please fix it as soon as possible!
