thank you very much for your reply. Indeed, I did not have the non-DE
crowd in mind when requesting the removal of evince-gtk.

Actually, no file in /usr/bin/evice* is linked against libnautilus,
but /usr/lib/nautilus/extensions-3.0/libevince-properties-page.so is:

$ ldd /usr/lib/nautilus/extensions-3.0/libevince-properties-page.so | grep nautilus
	libnautilus-extension.so.1 => /usr/lib/libnautilus-extension.so.1 (0x00007fa0da86e000)

Maybe this can be factored out into a separate package and everybody is
happy?
