Title:
Update evince to 3.28.4
Status in evince package in Ubuntu:
Fix Released
Status in evince source package in Bionic:
Fix Released
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.
