Package: release.debian.org
Severity: normal

Please unblock package evince, or consider this as a trixie-pu request
if it's too late for 13.0.
[ Reason ]
Fix print preview not working if a related package is installed.
[ Impact ]
If not fixed, print preview won't work for users who have installed
the papers package. None of our desktop environments do this by default
as far as I can see, but papers is a non-default choice for GNOME and
might fully replace evince in forky.
[ Tests ]
On a GNOME system with the proposed evince but not papers, print preview
of a PDF still works correctly, opening in evince-previewer.
On a GNOME system with the proposed evince and also papers, print
preview of a PDF previously didn't work; now it opens in
papers-previewer as intended.
[ Risks ]
Key package via our default GNOME desktop and several other desktops.
The change is narrowly targeted and low risk: a one-line change allowing
evince's AppArmor profile to run papers-previewer under
papers-previewer's own AppArmor profile (which already exists in the
papers package).
[ Checklist ]
[x] all changes are documented in the d/changelog
[x] I reviewed all changes and I approve them
[x] attach debdiff against the package in testing
[ Other info ]
I'm hoping this will be my last unblock request before 13.0, thanks for
processing all the GNOME bugfix uploads to make the desktop as polished
as we can get it!
