Public bug reported: Binary package hint: evince
evince './ACTInc_Quote#1722076.2.pdf' works evince '/net/llama/home/peter/ACTInc_Quote#1722076.2.pdf' pops up a dialog that says Unable to open document The local file URI 'file:/tmp/evince-8626/document-0-ACTInc_Quote#1722076.2.pdf' may not include a '#' It has copied the file to file to it's /tmp directory with a changed filename. [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ cmp '/net/llama/home/peter/ACTInc_Quote#1722076.2.pdf' /tmp/evince-8626/document-0-ACTInc_Quote [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ echo $? 0 The copying seems kind of unnecessary. If I give a program a path in /net, I expect it to access it the same as a path in /home. In this case, my PDF is tiny, so it didn't matter whether it was cached or not. But maybe there should be a URI other than file:/ that means to cache to /tmp. If I wanted files pre-cached, I'd go find a FUSE filesystem that did that, or something. ** Affects: evince (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- evince chokes on absolute paths that include a # https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/135680 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
