[Bug 758811] Re: Weird scrolling with PDF containing differently sized pages

 

** Description changed:

  Binary package hint: evince
  
- I'm hitting a weird bug with Evince.
+ 1) lsb_release -rd
+ Description:	Ubuntu Vivid Vervet (development branch)
+ Release:	15.04
  
- I'm opening the attached PDF and maximise the window. Fit Width and
- Continous are selected. I scrolled down very quickly by holding down the
- Page down key. It eventually loops (sic!) between page 6 and 7. I can
- hold the key Page down key forever and it'll keep looping. I cannot
- scroll down. Same problem exists if I slowly press the page down key.
- Same thing for space. It works using the down arrow though. Note that
- page 7 has different dimensions.
+ 2) apt-cache policy evince libcairo2 libpoppler[0-9]
+ evince:
+   Installed: 3.14.1-0ubuntu1
+   Candidate: 3.14.1-0ubuntu1

- This issue is quite reproducable. Not always though.
+ 3) What is expected to happen with
+ https://launchpadlibrarian.net/69136251/Gnome3BluePoster-a0.pdf is when
+ one views this maximized, goes to page 9, then holds the PgUp button, it
+ pages up to the first page.
+ 
+ 4) What happens instead is it gets stuck on page 7, scrolls to 8
+ briefly, goes back to 7, and cycles through this in perpetuity.
