Package: evince
Version: 2.22.2-2
Severity: normal
Firing up evince with a non-existent file gives the bizarre result of:
Unable to open document
Unknown MIME Type
This is rather surprising (and rather annoying if you make a typo on the file
name and don't realise it for a while).
Attached is a screenshot after running
