today gv 3.6.2 appeared on the fink package management system and the reported
error (s. attached original message) went away.

sorry for any inconvenience,

hi there,

I'd like to report the following problem (confirmed by  m. costabel,
cf. Cc):

when viewing a pdf-file, the file is initially correctly displayed but
`gv' allows zooming in  only if `gv' was called on a bare file name
such as:

gv some_file.pdf.

if started with a relative or absolute path in front, such as 

gv some_path/some_file.pdf

I get the error message:

------------------cut--------------------------------
Error: /invalidfileaccess in --file--
Operand stack:

Execution stack:
%interp_exit   .runexec2   --nostringval--   --nostringval--

in the `gv' error window. 


more precisely, e.g. for a file in my home directory:

gv some_file.pdf            -- works
gv ./some_file.pdf          -- works
gv ~/some_file.pdf          -- does not work (zooming fails)
gv /Users/vdh/some_file.pdf -- does not work (zooming fails).

on the other hand, viewing of postscript files works in either case,
i.e.


gv some_file.ps
gv some_path/some_file.ps


both work as they should. I don't have the slightest idea what is
happening.


this is with MacOSX 10.4.9. and gv 3.6.1 (installed via fink 0.27.1)).
my `.gv' file looks like

GV.antialias: False
GV.watchFile: True
GV.watchFileFrequency: 2500

I only now cornered the problem (which previously appeared to be of the
"now you see it, now you don't" variety), but think I observe this
since about 6-12 month).
