Title:
evince thinks colon in filename means url syntax
Status in Evince document viewer:
Invalid
Status in “evince” package in Ubuntu:
Triaged
Bug description:
Binary package hint: evince
Evince does not seem to be able to open a file with a colon in the
name:
> liw@dorfl$ evince 'foo:bar'.pdf
>
> (evince:12543): libgnomevfs-CRITICAL **: gnome_vfs_uri_is_local: assertion
`uri != NULL' failed
This is probably due to some kind of assumption that the colon
indicates a protocol in a URI scheme. It is highly surprising to the
user, and if it can't be fixed (by seeing if a file with that name
actually exists), at least the user should get a more sensible error
message than "File not found".
