evince post install launch tweaks help needed

[Kenneth Wolcott]

Thank you all for the help.

I removed xQuartz from the homebrew installation.

I then installed org-server using MacPorts.

I logged out and logged back in.

When running evince with a Postscript file I still get the flashing
and I get the following:

dbus[66621]: Dynamic session lookup supported but failed: launchd did
not provide a socket path, verify that
org.freedesktop.dbus-session.plist is loaded!
