Bug#498149: segfault evince crashes on opening pdf document

[Norbert Zudrell]

Hi,

thanks a lot for this quick help! Updating to poppler 0.8.6-1 solved the
problem. From my point of view, bug can be closed.

Excuse the delay of my answer, had to check why packages list of my - once preferred - mirror site has been that outdate, though actual versions of packages available.

Regards
Norbert
