Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: mpage

On a dapper system, the command
mpage filename.ps 
produces pages that appear as blank output in ggv and on my printer, for all 
postscript files I have tried.

Likewise, the command
mpage filename.txt 
produces apparently blank pages for text files.  However, the workaround 
suggested in bug #58236 does work for text files, so this command:
mpage filename.txt | grep -v '^\/uni'
produces usable output when fed text files. 

However, my ignorant attempt:
mpage filename.ps | grep -v '^\/uni'
does not produce usable output.

** Affects: mpage (Ubuntu)
