Sebastian I don't use leafpad but I can't reproduce Evince sluggishness. Just opened up a dozen pdfs from a few KB to 11MB and all pretty snappy....albeit all from the same folder. Indexing? (spitballing)

    brent As of the evince issue, this might simply be a pdf file integrity issue. I have several pdf files from different sources that lead to evince needing at least 10 seconds to load them. Some of them I checked for integrity here.

    With the following result:
    Compliance pdfa-1a
    Result Document does not conform to PDF/A.
    Details
    Validating file "Anlage-0.pdf" for conformance level pdfa-1a
    The schema description for namespace 'pdfx:' (http://ns.adobe.com/pdfx/1.3/) is missing.
    The key StructTreeRoot is required but missing.
    The document does not conform to the requested standard.
    The document's meta data is either missing or inconsistent or corrupt.
    The document doesn't provide appropriate logical structure information.
    The document does not conform to the PDF/A-1a standard.

    So, evince issue might therefore only affect currupted PDF's.
    Zathura by the way opens theses files without a problem.

      @Sebastian thanks for sharing all that. no way would I use that site though. they get your documents and ip address, document metadata, and probably more; that's TMI for me personally.
      the valuable output sorta kinda reminded me of using adobe pitstop, in the day.
      I wonder if there is a standalone pdf foss app that measures pdf integrity? another way to check is to print the pdf to postscript but you'd still need preflight tools to get that data (maybe scribus?) but convoluted compared to just doing it now. all the other services they provide at that website I can do via gimp, office suite,scribus, pdfunite..

      ps--this is the second time I've seen zathura mentioned in a week. maybe will try it. edit/format

        Lol! I was thinking "Also sprach Zarathustra" was becoming more popular:

        brent I wonder if there is a standalone pdf foss app that measures pdf integrity?

        @Sebastian qpdfin terminal. qpdf --check /home/documents/your.pdf
        heckuva an output. --check was just one of many arguments.
        just passing it on. I/we are off topic enough as it isπŸ™‚.

        I am using zathura too, I like that you can set text font color and also background color in its config.

        After this quick hotfix I'm unable to boot gnome on wayland: the desktop freeze after login with the topbar visible, activity button pressed and the wallpaper is all black. Xorg is still ok.

          plutuplutu So the only change that we introduced during the hotfix was to delete /usr/share/defaults/etc/profile.d/50-qt-theming.sh which had these contents. There's not really anything in there that should break an interactive login for GNOME. Do you happen to have anything in your .bashrc or other local profile that could be dependending on one of these variables?

          Known issues updated with addition of a sound bug. Also updated the solution/workaround for the issue of not being able to login to Plasma.

          EbonJaeger @joebonrichie and Algent deprecated more Python2 packages, greatly reducing the number that are left. Python 2 is dead, long live Python 3!

          Looks like it caused an issue for me as this prevents now to rollback. Please see here : https://discuss.getsol.us/d/6954-fix-system-rollback-with-deprecated-packages/9 )

          Don't know if the issue is mine only or if it could affect more people.
          (and sorry to post it at the last minute, I'll be far from the impacted computer in to coming days; will not be able to provide more feedback regarding what I'm experiencing :/ )

          Came home to a 37-package security update. Rebooted. Poked around and everything good as usual. Thank you everybody.
