Public bug reported:

Hi,
Recently I have enable Apparmor notify to desktop and when a pdf is open by 
evice a message appear.
Not sure how it happens but since I enabled the appaarmor notify to desktop I 
realized that an error is raised.
This appens for any pdf document is open.
A chmod operation is denied on a /tmp sub-folder
Any error is in this form:

[ 5148.214512] type=1400 audit(1392198051.114:66): apparmor="DENIED"
operation="chmod" parent=1 profile="/usr/bin/evince" name="/tmp/at-
spi2/" pid=6922 comm="evince" requested_mask="w" denied_mask="w"
fsuid=1000 ouid=118

I do not know if this error can be the source of a malfunction of the
program, which is why I reported the problem.

My system is Ubuntu 12.04 LTS (updated to last available packages):
lsb_release -rd:
