libspectre - 0.2.7-2ubuntu3  does not solve the problem for me. 
Rather, it replaces the original problem (black background) with another one (nothing displayed, completely white). 
As before, manually adding "showpage" at the end of the eps file renders correctly.
I observe the problem on Ubuntu 15.04 (upgraded form 14.10) and Kubuntu 15.04 (fresh install).

Title:
  evince and okular do not render eps files correctly resulting in a
  black background

Status in evince package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid
Status in libspectre package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in okular package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  Several eps files, which previously rendered correctly, are not
  rendered correctly by evince and okular.  It looks as though something
  is wrong with the "transparency" setting, since most of the
  incorrectly-rendered files have a black background, but the figure can
  somewhat be made out on top of hte black background.  The PDF files I
  have tested are NOT affected.  EPS files that were previously viewable
  correctly ARE affected.

  Thank you for your time.
