Hello Jeremy, or anyone else affected,

Accepted evince into bionic-proposed. The package will build now and be
available at https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/evince/3.28.4-0ubuntu1
in a few hours, and then in the -proposed repository.

Please help us by testing this new package.  See
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation on how
to enable and use -proposed.  Your feedback will aid us getting this
update out to other Ubuntu users.

If this package fixes the bug for you, please add a comment to this bug,
mentioning the version of the package you tested and change the tag from
verification-needed-bionic to verification-done-bionic. If it does not
fix the bug for you, please add a comment stating that, and change the
tag to verification-failed-bionic. In either case, without details of
your testing we will not be able to proceed.

Further information regarding the verification process can be found at
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/PerformingSRUVerification .  Thank you in
advance for helping!

N.B. The updated package will be released to -updates after the bug(s)
fixed by this package have been verified and the package has been in
-proposed for a minimum of 7 days.

Title:
  Update evince to 3.28.4

Status in evince package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in evince source package in Bionic:
  Fix Committed

Bug description:
  [Impact]
  New release in the stable 3.28 series.

  https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/evince/commits/gnome-3-28
  https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/evince/blob/gnome-3-28/NEWS

  [Test Case]
  1. Install new evince version
  2. try opening multiple pdf and ps files, ensure no obvious regression is 
visible.

  [Regression Potential] 
  The visible regression potential is the enable-ps (see comment below), 
otherwise, the new evince upstream release has been released a while ago with 
no post-release fixes: https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/evince/commits/gnome-3-28

  [Other Info]
  Please add --enable-ps to the build options since this version disables 
viewing Postscript files as a workaround for security issues in Ghostscript. We 
should fix Ghostscript instead.

  See https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/evince/issues/967
