PaleMoon crashes when PDF file is opened

Hi,
I got this strange issue with PaleMoon (latest versions since the end of April). Everything works fine except of PDF files. When I click on any link to PDF file, PaleMoon freezes. There is no box "Save of Open", it just freezes and I got this message from console:

(plugin-container:16318): GLib-GObject-CRITICAL **: g_boxed_type_register_static: assertion 'g_type_from_name (name) == 0' failed

(plugin-container:16318): GLib-CRITICAL **: g_once_init_leave: assertion 'result != 0' failed

Don't you know anything about this issue?
Thanks in advance.

Re: PaleMoon crashes when PDF file is opened

I had the same problem and the same error message with conkeror in combination with firefox or palemoon. I could solve it by deactivating the so-called evince plugin (or deinstalling evince).
