Description Chris Cheney 2004-04-13 23:40:47 UTC

Version:            (using KDE KDE 3.2.2)
Installed from:    Compiled From Sources
Compiler:          gcc 3.3.3 
OS:          Linux

kpdf uses its own macro called QPDFDBG instead of using kdebug. It also forces this macro on by default in the source and the only way to change it is via editting the source directly and recompiling. It should default to off at a minimum and should probably the kpdf should be modified to use kdebug instead since that allows easy configure switches to turn debugging on or off for the entire module.

Comment 1 Chris Cheney 2004-04-13 23:42:44 UTC

By the way the reason I found out about this problem is a Debian user filed a bug complaining about kpdf being so slow it was unusable. It had spit out over 4MB into the .xsession-errrors for a 4MB pdf file that they were trying to view.

Please do not change priorities unless you're the maintainer
