Created attachment 128364 [details] [review] ubuntu-patch1 1. Install the latest Ubuntu security update for ghostscript on a stable Ubuntu release (I tested with 16.10) 2. Install libspectre1 0.2.8-1 (it's available in zesty-proposed). 3. Open a .eps with Evince. Here's a test file: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libspectre/+bug/1348384/+attachment/4171120/+files/countrate.eps What happens: The .eps fails to display. If run from a terminal, this is output: invalidaccess -7 Ubuntu's libspectre 0.2.7 does not have this problem. Note that Ubuntu 16.10 handled bug 76450 differently than the fix that was included in 0.2.8. I am attaching the two Ubuntu patches that Ubuntu applied against 0.2.7.

This was fixed in Ubuntu by another ghostscript update today. See https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ghostscript/9.19~dfsg+1-0ubuntu6.3
