[Bug 1448778] Re: Evince fails to display some fonts (some font thing failed)

 

thanks for your bug report

reading your kernel log, it seems you have /usr/local installed fonts
"/usr/local/texlive/2014/texmf-dist/fonts/opentype/public/tex-gyre/texgyreheros-regular.otf"

the issue seems similar to bug #846639 which has been closed because
having custom texlive installation is non common and if you use an
unsual setups it's up to you to do the apparmor configuration
adjustement to adapt to it, doing the same here

Title:
  Evince fails to display some fonts (some font thing failed)

Status in evince package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  Dear experts,

  Since the upgrade to Ubuntu 15.04, evince fails to display some fonts
  of most of my latex pdfs. I attached an example of the pdf rendered by
  evince, and a screenshot of what it's supposed to look like. The
  console is spammed with errors:

  'some font thing failed'

  The pdf display correctly with xpdf and  okular.

  Thanks
