This is a comment to help others who have similar issues. I had moved
my home directory to /opt/home/george on a different partition.
AppArmor appears to prevent evince from writing there. I edited my
/etc/apparmor.d/tunables/home file (see
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingApparmor#Adjusting%20Tunables) from:
@{HOMEDIRS}=/home/
to
@{HOMEDIRS}=/home/ /opt/home/george/
Then restarted apparmor
sudo /etc/init.d/apparmor restart
My evince problems (similar to reported above) are gone. Specifically,
it no longer complains about not being able to read/write ~/.recently-
used.xbel, ~/.gnome2/evince/evince_toolbar.xml, and
~/.gnome2/evince/evince_toolbar.xml. And it retains my settings across
sessions.
