I've installed libgeis1 2.2.9.2-0ubuntu1 and can confirm that the proposed update does fix this bug (the slow startup of evince when the backend fails to initialize).
I don't run Unity, so I cannot comment on whether this version solves that particular regression. ** Tags removed: verification-needed ** Tags added: verification-done -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to evince in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/997630 Title: evince and eog broken on remote sessions (X, NX, x2go and VNC) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/geis/+bug/997630/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
