i usually start i3 from a terminal when i start up my debian. I recently upgraded to sid and now when I start evince there is a approximately 27 second delay after evince is started before it paints a window. evince is version 40.4-2
Googling found me this bug report https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/dbus/+bug/1852016 which mentions that it happens with lots of gtk2 applications which is appropriate bug. interesting the solutions mentioned there of install appmenu-gtk2-module and reboot did not work neither did dbus-launch evince file.pdf nor did dbus-launch --exit-with-session evince file.pdf However, going to another window and starting xfce as boot up then going back to my i3 window and evince starts up immediately. Of course I have installed appmenu-gtk2 so that might have something to do with it as well. So though i have solved my problem i have to start this background xfce to get it to work normally. interesting bug. Any ideas? Mitchell
