I use Xpdf frequently & have no problem with it.
The security bug you cite says there is a newer version 3.03
which fixes at least some of the security problems.
If you limit yourself sensibly to PDFs from known reliable sites,
you won't run into the problem in Bug 386271 AFAIK.
The bug I submitted is minor & has a workaround, which I use.
Is there an alternative which doesn't require eg 'kdelibs' or similar ?
In my netbook, Xpdf is the only method I have of reading PDFs,
as I use Fluxbox & don't have KDE installed at all.
There is a fork of some kind at https://github.com/rbrito/xpdf-poppler ,
which is given as the contact by 'eix'.
I very much hope there is at least an alternative
or otherwise some reconsideration of removing Xpdf from Gentoo.

One of the reasons for the 30 day warning is to give you time to copy the
ebuild to a local overlay if you want to continue running the software at
your own risk. But leaving unmaintained software in the tree, especially
with security holes, is at best pointless and at worst dangerous.

I've already copied /usr/portage/app-text/xpdf/ to /usr/local/src/ :
is there anything else I will need, if I decide to go that route ?

I'm reluctant to go down this route. Things that xpdf depends may or many not
be updated, then I'll have to keep an eye out for the latest xpdf code and
download and update this manually, as well as any dependencies which may fall
out of the tree. This will create a maintenance liability for me.
I'd like to continue using xpdf, but unless a maintainer shows up it'll have
to bite the dust. :-(
Anyhow, another alternative may be mupdf - it opens files when called from
another application (e.g. a browser) but unlike xpdf I have not found a way of
saving a file once opened without having to redownload it with the browser.

I'd look into /tmp, it'll probably be there.

It should not stop you from trying okular (kdelibs based)
and evince (libgnome based). They are really neat.
For lightweight variants you might like to look at
app-text/epdfview and app-text/gsview or at some
pdf->something converter.

Well no ! -- I don't want to have any KDE in my netbook :
I use a lot of KDE apps on my desktop, incl Okular, but not in the netbook.

Thanks for this & other comments + advice.
I've installed Evince Epdfview Zathura. Evince looks as usable as Xpdf
& Epdfview is also simple & effective; Zathura works, but relies largely
on keys (ok) & the index toggles, which is not quite as usable.
Epdfview has the advantage over Evince that it needs no deps,
so that's what I may use in my netbook.
I also noticed a note in my homemade list of installed pkgs
that I had to patch Xpdf to avoid the slow-start problem,
so I'm satisfied that it cb consigned to history.

Me too, but it does require some cruft from gnome.

It used to be the case that FF would drop temporary downloads in /tmp, but I
can't find them in there any more. This is of particular interest for some
flash videos which after I watched them I decide to save them, but can't find
them anywhere. Ditto with Chromium, not idea where it saves such temporary
files.
PS. Opera saves them under ~.opera/cache/sesn/ if I recall correctly,
although it gives them random names and I have to run them or guess from their
size, before I know if it is the file that I wanted to save.

Hmm ... tried to emerge epdfview and it failed: :-(
# emerge -uaDv epdfview
These are the packages that would be merged, in order:

It may depend on which FF plugin is displaying the download, not sure.
Anyway, you might try lsof while FF is still displaying it. i.e. pause
the video or whatever while you're hunting.

AFAIK, that's adobe-flash's doing, not firefox/chromium. PDFs and other
files downloaded with the "open"-action in Firefox still get dumped into
/tmp.

[getting OT regarding xpdf]
Yes, that's the flash plugin. It creates a file and then immediately deletes
it again. But thanks to the open architecture of a Linux system you can get it
back by copying from the file handle in /proc. I have a little script for
that which I'll attach to this message. It looks for all file handles that
link to a (now deleted) file called /tmp/Flash* and restores the link,
printing out the filename it thusly recovered. It could be a bit refined by
only looking for handles of flash player PIDs, but I guess a human wouldn't
perceive the difference anyway.
For youtube, I recommend youtube-dl. It lets you select the video format and
resolution (as offered), downloads the video and automatically renames the
file.

Do a resync & try emerging 0.1.8 , which is what I have.
Also, I don't use the 'nls' flag, so try '-nls' too if necessary.

Yes, I'm also using xVideoServiceThief for youtube.
Thanks for your script! I'll put it through its paces soon. :-)

Thanks Philip, 0.1.8 emerged successfully with cups and nls. It seems like a
lightweight pdf reader that does all I may need (assuming that it doesn't fall
over itself on DRM).
