I think the proper behaviour should be that KGhostView shows a message that the file got removed. And even better would be if it could still show the pages. The only way I can reproduce this even going back to KDE 3.0.0 is if I get a broken gs installation (not that hard ;) and gs quits after each page. In normal use, this doesn't happen. If the file gets changed from underneath kghostview after the gs slave has opened it, normal unix semantics keep the old file available to the slave which just keeps on displaying the pages. I leave the bug open, but the real issue is tellling the user that gs exited abruptly. Maybe "the rendering experienced some problems. You might see incomplete images. Please check your ghostscript installation, ...". This might also fix bug 24226. I will look into it. luis pedro coelho. *** Bug 24226 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** |
