Package: evince-common
Version: 3.10.3-0ubuntu10.2
Severity: important
Dear Maintainer,
please allow evince to read TTF fonts wherever they may be. With the current 
apparmor profile, symlink-ing a TTF font from another partition into 
/usr/share/fonts leads to unusable evince menus (empty squares instead of 
characters).
It' a real easy fix: in /etc/apparmor.d/abstractions/evince, right after the 
**.[bB][mM][pP] & company add
  /**.[tT][tT][fF]     r,  # fonts can live anywhere
I'm using 3.10.3 from Ubuntu Trusty, but I've checked the Debian source for 
3.14* and I don't see any obvious changes in this respect.
