I'm setting the bug importance to Critical according to #7 of
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/StableReleaseUpdates#Procedure

https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libspectre/0.2.7-2ubuntu2 was an
SRU that introduced this regression on Trusty.

Title:
  evince and okular do not render eps files correctly resulting in a
  black background

Status in libspectre package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in libspectre source package in Trusty:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  Several eps files, which previously rendered correctly, are not
  rendered correctly by evince and okular.  It looks as though something
  is wrong with the "transparency" setting, since most of the
  incorrectly-rendered files have a black background, but the figure can
  somewhat be made out on top of hte black background.  The PDF files I
  have tested are NOT affected.  EPS files that were previously viewable
  correctly ARE affected.

  Thank you for your time.
