Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: evince

I have a script called "epi-tab.sh" that opens URLs differently based on
some user-specified criteria. It is configured via
System:Preferences:Preferred Applications.

Attempting to open a URL from evince results in an error message:
"Unable to open external link -- Failed to execute child process
"/home/atrus/notes/epi-tab.sh" (Permission denied)"

Whatever browser I have configured in "Preferred Applications" should be
allowed as a URL-opener from evince -- especially since it works
everywhere else.
