That's a regression from CVE-2017-1000083.patch, upstream fixed it with https://git.gnome.org/browse/evince/commit/?h=gnome-3-20&id=ef6c1d98
Steve, how do we handle regression due to security uploads like that? (the problem is minor but ideally should be addressed) ** CVE added: https://cve.mitre.org/cgi- bin/cvename.cgi?name=2017-1000083 ** Changed in: evince (Ubuntu) Assignee: (unassigned) => Steve Beattie (sbeattie) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to evince in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1716357 Title: a typo in evince-previewer.desktop breaks /etc/mailcap Status in evince package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Release version: Ubuntu 16.04.3 LTS Package version: 3.18.2-1ubuntu4.1 /usr/share/applications/evince-previewer.desktop comes from the evince package.
