Package: evince
Version: 41.3-1
Severity: important

Dear Maintainer,

A couple of weeks or maybe months ago I noticed Evince started freezing
when I’m trying to print anything. Upon checking the journal, I found
this:

Dec 28 11:04:07 nuevo audit[3361741]: AVC apparmor="DENIED" operation="exec" profile="/usr/bin/evince" name="/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libproxy/0.4.17/pxgsettings" pid=3361741 comm="sh" requested_mask="x" denied_mask="x" fsuid=1000 ouid=0

Indeed, by switching evince to complain mode, I was able to proceed;
many more messages about attempted (and allowed) attempts to access this
file appeared in the logs.

Please update the AppArmor profile to allow this.

Thanks!
