Public bug reported:

Any time I try to view a PDF file, an icon is created in the task bar
that says "opening file ...." but the file does not open. No errors are
shown and I have not located any messages in any of the logs. This
problem affects ALL pdf files, but the files are displayable using
"mupdf".

According to the following, evince 3.6.0 is installed.


apt-cache policy evince
evince:
  Installed: 3.6.0-0ubuntu2
  Candidate: 3.6.0-0ubuntu2
  Version table:

        500 http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ quantal/main amd64 Packages
        100 /var/lib/dpkg/status

I have attempted to purge and reinstall evince several times, even to
the point of deleting the evince libraries in  /usr/lib/  and
/usr/share/   and  /var/lib/dpkg/info/   The result is always the same.
Sometimes after the failure, Ubuntu reports an internal error in evince
- which I have told it to send a report to the developers.  The report
must be very small, as it takes less than a second to do so.
