--- Comment #8 from Marco Gamberoni <gamberoni at libero.it> ---
Met this bug after upgrading to Kubuntu 15.04, which provides Okular Version
0.21.3 from KDE 4.14.6 (also installed Plasma 5.3 Beta from
ppa:kubuntu-ppa/beta, but don't think this affects Okular).
This bug is unbearable if a pdf document has varying page sizes: Okular locks
up at all transitions to a differently sized page. 
No errors (kdebugdialog used) and no CPU usage while Okular is unresponsive. 
strace has been the friend who hinted at this workaround:
   - install package printer-driver-cups-pdf, which provides a virtual (always
local) PDF printer
   - set this PDF printer as the default printer in KDE Control Panel 
   - also had to remove the setting of a network printer I had in
~/.cups/lpoptions

May I hope this bug gets fixed while porting Okular to KF5?
Thanks.
