[Bug 1432126] Re: Evince denied from opening

 

Seth,

Your fix did work for me. Firefox (GTK3) and Evince worked as expected
with the AA change. It appears that GDM is what decided where to put the
Xauthority file. If I "dpkg-reconfigure gdm" and switch to LightDM then
the Xauthority file appears in $HOME again.

Title:
  Evince denied from opening

Status in Ubuntu GNOME:
  New
Status in apparmor package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Apparmor is denying evince from running.

  It initially started when I tried opening a PDF attachment in
  Thunderbird. Saving the file to disk and opening via nautilus renders
  the same result. Trying to just open evince without a file doesn't
  work as well.
