If changing the working directory to somewhere else and calling the same file, it works fine. Example: freddy@pegasus:~ 0% /usr/local/bin/acroread7 cvs/data/acroread/ds_networker.pdf (acroread:1527): GLib-CRITICAL **: file gconvert.c: line 498 (g_convert): assertion `str != NULL' failed ==> fails freddy@pegasus:~ 0% cd cvs freddy@pegasus:~/cvs 0% /usr/local/bin/acroread7 data/acroread/ds_networker.pdf ==> works Tested with almost any current PDF document format (i.e. 1.3, 1.4, 1.5). >How-To-Repeat: Install print/acroread7, then chdir to $HOME, fetch some PDF file and try to open from $HOME as "acroread filename", create $HOME/tmp, chdir to tmp and try to open same file as "acroread ../filename". >Fix: >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted:
