Comment (by arappe):
Thank you for this clear report. It sounds like people are working on
fixing poppler.
I want to report that version 0.86.1 of poppler also breaks evince.
evince file.pdf
(gives Segmentation Fault)
This happens for some but not all files.
I found this URL helpful.
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=460748
(different decade; different OS)
But the quote:
"Hi,
this is a bug in poppler.
It is caused by different sizes of bounding boxes of words and bounding
boxes of lines."
seemed meaningful to me.
Fix for me:
sudo port activate poppler
pick version 0.84.1
evince works as normal.
I hope this helps those evince users out there.
