showpage at the end of .eps files

ParfenovS · buefox · commit 8d640a57521c · 2015-08-29T14:12:25.000+08:00
There can be problems with viewing of *.eps files using evince or okular. See, for example, this thread: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/evince/+bug/1348384 There are the same problems in the last releases of Fedora. Note that the same *.eps files which can not be viewed with evince/okular can be opened and viewed with inkscape, ghostscript etc. These commits allow to avoid such problems. I understand that *.eps files without showpage at the end are valid. But the presence of showpage is allowed and should not lead to some problems.
