Description arutha 2004-07-09 20:45:42 UTC
Version:           0.20 (using KDE 3.2.2, Gentoo)
Compiler:          gcc version 3.2.3 20030422 (Gentoo Linux 1.4 3.2.3-r1, propolice)
OS:                Linux (i686) release 2.6.7

When a file is not existent kghostview displays a popup error
message. Unfortunately this is also done when a file is being
watched. I use kghostview to view a latex generated pdf.
Whenever I regenerate the pdf theres a race between the new
file being created and kghostview noticing that there is no
file of that name any longer. This message is quite annoying
especially as I always get more than one message (multiple tex
runs because of bibtex, references etc.)

The error message should not be a popup at least when an error
occurs while watching a file. Maybe have a message in the status bar.
