The evince API has radically changed. Read was/is broken on distros that shipped the new evince. Lucian very kindly took some time out from his Browse/Surf web kit work to update Read (he had been already working with new evince for PDF support). I think the only feature regression was that of Epub support (works, but the toolbars have been disabled until it's also hooked into the new API — on my todo but quite far down and quite complicated for me).</div><div><br></div><div>... and just to complicate matters the git rep mainline (which Lucian updated to support the new evince) is at version <span class="Apple-style-span" style="-webkit-tap-highlight-color: rgba(26, 26, 26, 0.289062); -webkit-composition-fill-color: rgba(175, 192, 227, 0.222656); -webkit-composition-frame-color: rgba(77, 128, 180, 0.222656); ">79 — no idea where 87 came from, looks like releases have been made from some other rep/branch, so am not sure what other changes happened 78 -> 87, yes it's a mess :-(</span></div><div><br></div><div>When I last tested, the current version in git is good for F14 (excluding the above Epub UI regression). </div><div><br></div><div>Regards,</div><div>--Gary </div><br><blockquote type="cite"><div><span></span><span>mikus</span><br><span></span><br></div></blockquote><blockquote type="cite"><div>Traceback (most recent call last):
