I just noticed this. 16.04, GNOME desktop. I can't remember when the last time I did a successful search in Evince was but it's something I do regularly. Maybe two or three days at most since it last worked.
I'm attaching an apt-cache show if it'll help. ** Attachment added: "apt-cache show for evince on my workstation" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/evince/+bug/1588197/+attachment/4675480/+files/evince.txt -- 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/1588197 Title: Can't type anything in search box Status in evince package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: Since Ubuntu 16.04, I can't search strings in PDF using Evince viewer.
