Public bug reported: Binary package hint: evince
Evince cannot create a directory using the "create directory" button from the gnome file dialog. It reports an error "Cannot create directory: permission denied". This does not happen if I create the directory within /home/, but it happens if I create it in a mounted windows partition (to which I have write access). This seems to be an apparmor problem (cf. bug #489170): /var/log/messages reports Nov 30 08:59:54 dave-laptop kernel: [ 1778.955484] type=1503 audit(1259567994.230:32): operation="mkdir" pid=2821 parent=1 profile="/usr/bin/evince" requested_mask="w::" denied_mask="w::" fsuid=1000 ouid=1000 name=2F77696E646F77732F446F63756D656E747320616E642053657474696E67732F446176652F4D7920446F63756D656E74732F746573742F ProblemType: Bug Architecture: i386 CheckboxSubmission: 448ddb0c4aba421c090cbccd4f031a21 CheckboxSystem: cfcd60a3bf8b6d8468a7e0a360390eb1 Date: Mon Nov 30 08:54:57 2009 DistroRelease: Ubuntu 9.10 ExecutablePath: /usr/bin/evince Package: evince 2.28.1-0ubuntu1.2 ProcEnviron: LANG=en_GB.UTF-8 SHELL=/bin/bash ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 2.6.31-15.50-generic SourcePackage: evince Uname: Linux 2.6.31-15-generic i686 XsessionErrors: (gnome-settings-daemon:1829): GLib-CRITICAL **: g_propagate_error: assertion `src != NULL' failed (gnome-settings-daemon:1829): GLib-CRITICAL **: g_propagate_error: assertion `src != NULL' failed (polkit-gnome-authentication-agent-1:1879): GLib-CRITICAL **: g_once_init_leave: assertion `initialization_value != 0' failed (nautilus:1863): Eel-CRITICAL **: eel_preferences_get_boolean: assertion `preferences_is_initialized ()' failed (gnome-panel:1862): Gdk-WARNING **: /build/buildd/gtk+2.0-2.18.3/gdk/x11/gdkdrawable-x11.c:952 drawable is not a pixmap or window ** Affects: evince (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags: apport-bug i386 -- cannot create directory from file dialog https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/490230 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to evince in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
