[Bug 1010909] Re: permission denied: /usr/bin/{mktexpk, mktextfm}
I have reproduced the failures on generating fonts with evince on a dvi
file and apparmor 2.8.95~2430-0ubuntu5.1 and can confirm that apparmor
2.8.95~2430-0ubuntu5.2 addresses the issue. Marking verification-done.

Title:
permission denied: /usr/bin/{mktexpk,mktextfm}
Status in apparmor package in Ubuntu:
Fix Released
Bug description:
[impact]
This bug prevents viewing dvi files with evince while confined by
apparmor.
[steps to reproduce]
1) install evince, ensure evince apparmor policy is enabled
2) view a dvi with evince
3) with the fix applied, evince should be able to display the dvi
document and should not generate apparmor rejections in syslog
[regression potential]
The change in the patch for this bug is a loosening of the apparmor
policy for the sanitized helpers of evince. The risk of an introduced
regression is small.

3) What is expected to happen is when one attempts to open
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/texlive-
bin/+bug/1010909/+attachment/4282336/+files/example.dvi it does so
successfully.
4) What happens instead is it hangs indefinitely, as per output of running evince via a terminal https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/texlive-bin/+bug/1010909/+attachment/4282345/+files/error.txt . This would appear to be due to apparmor as per:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/texlive-bin/+bug/1010909/+attachment/4282344/+files/kern.log
However, attempting to disable the offending profile fails:
sudo aa-complain /usr/bin/evince//sanitized_helper
/usr/bin/evince//sanitized_helper does not exist, please double-check the path.
