["Christopher M. Penalver" <christopher.m.penalver@xxxxxxxxx>]

** Description changed:

- I have a pdf file with a few files attached. Some of the attachments are
- PDFs, some are not. The PDF attachments are opened Ok, whereas non-PDF
- attachments cannot be opened as, seemingly, evince tries to open them by
- itself instead of calling appropriate application.
+ What is expected to happen with
+ https://launchpadlibrarian.net/193855168/Sample_with_attachment.pdf is
+ when one clicks the top left drop down to Attachments, secondary clicks
+ the .jpg attachment, it opens up successfully.
+ 
+ What happens instead is Evince notes:
+ Unable to open attachment
+ Couldn't open attachment “Clown_fish_in_the_Andaman_Coral_Reef.jpg”: Failed to execute child process "eog" (Permission denied)
