Nice find, thank-you. It's good at least to know why it's broken. scenario: A firefox downloaded PDF comes up in evince from /tmp/mozilla_user0 I want to save a copy to $HOME/preferred/directory using ctrl-s
As a test, I added a soft link from ~/Documents to ~/preferred/directory and tried the same procedure with evince 3.28.4 but it still wants to save to $HOME. The newer version also removes the menu bar and the hotkey hints so for now I'm sticking with evince 3.18.2 I guess this is a WONTFIX but thanks again. -- 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/1866381 Title: evince no longer remembers last used folder/directory when saving Status in evince package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: On upgrading from Xubuntu 16.04 (xenial) to Xubuntu 18.04.2 LTS (bionic), evince no longer saves a copy of a downloaded document to the previously used directory for saving documents but defaults to $HOME every time. As a workaround, downgrading evince, evince-common, libevdocument3-4 and libevview3-3 from their bionic version 3.28.4-0ubuntu1 to their xenial version 3.18.2-1ubuntu4.6 restores the expected behaviour.
