** Description changed: Evince 3.4 on Ubuntu 12.04 When I try to email a PDF with spaces in the file name, Evince tells me that the file does not exist and so could not be attached. - Steps to reproduce: + [Impact] + + * For certain named PDFs Evince won't you email them. It's easy to workaround, but why should users have to when they have an email option in evince. + * The diff is the upstream fix that is in all future versions of Ubuntu. + + [Test Case] 1) Open the PDF file with spaces in the file name, e.g. "GNOME Rules.pdf", with Evince. 2) In Evince, click the File menu. On the file menu click Send To... item. The Send To dialog appears. 3) On the Send To dialog, in the Destination section, Email will be selected in the "Send as:" dropdown list. In the "Send to:" textbox, enter a valid email address. 4) On the Send To dialog, click the Send button. + + Actual results: The File Attach error message will appear, stating that the PDF file you were trying to send does not exist and so could not be attached. In the File Attach dialog you will notice that spaces in the file name have been replaced by 0s. This is the reason why the program cannot find the file. Expected results: A new email message composing window from the default email client should appear, with the email address entered in to Send To dialog appearing in the To field, and with the PDF document attached. + + + [Regression Potential] + + * We could somehow make the Send to functionality worse. + + Upstream bug report: I also filed the bug on GNOME's bugzilla. The bug report number is 681144.
