bug#23083: Reverting pdf in Multifile tex document

[Waleed Yousef]

Thanks so much,

the good news is that the problem disappeared. However, a new problem
occurred.

For some preamble (which is really weird) the pdf does not revert
(refresh); however it goes to the right page (but without
refreshing). For the following preamble, when I comment some packages
the problem disappear!!

\documentclass[11pt, b6paper, landscape, oneside]{memoir}
