Bug Description

When I upgrade from kubuntu 13.04 (completely up-to-date) to kubuntu 13.10, first thing I notice is that okular is no longer reacting to clicks on hyperlinks. I discovered the problem on a confidential document, but I have reproduced it on a very small test document, produced by lowriter, dumped as PDF and attached. If you display this document with okular 4:4.10.5-0ubuntu0.1 (the one in kubuntu 13.04) you can click on the link and see where I work. If you display this document with okular 4:4.11.2-0ubuntu1 (the one in kubuntu 13.10) you can click to your hearts content and get nothing but a sore index finger.

Sorry for the slow response.

When I observed the problem, I must assume that I was in "Browse" mode - that is the default mode, right?

But I no longer have the problem - what I observed back in October 2013 does not reproduce today - today I /can/ use the link in the PDF file. Well, it is not the same okular version, either - it has moved from 4.11.2 to 4.11.3. So I guess we've better close the bug.
