Title:
  Failed to create directory /usr/tmp/evince-12292: permission denied
  when attempting to save pdf file

Status in evince package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: evince

  this repeatable bug prevents me from saving a pdf file into a dir which has worked previously.  
  The fatal error message says permission denied in dir /usr/tmp which I have full permissions on, 
  even though I requested to save the pdf file elsewhere which I also have full permission on and
  have previously successfully saved files into.  Please advise.
