I can confirm that it seems search is broken in general right now in the
yakkety development build (evince 3.18.2-1ubuntu4).
To reproduce: Open a PDF through Nautilus (or command line), use Ctrl+F
(or use Edit->Find from the menu), and note that no keyboard input is
accepted in the search field.
In fact, it appears that every text field in evince does not respond to
keyboard input.
I see the following errors when running from the terminal:
(evince:11079): IBUS-WARNING **: Unable to connect to ibus: Could
not connect: Permission denied
(evince:11079): IBUS-WARNING **: Events queue growing too big, will
start to drop.

Title:
cannot type in search or page boxes in evince
Status in evince package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
In Ubuntu 13.10, if I open a PDF file from the command line (e.g. by
typing `evince FNM.pdf`), I cannot type a page number in the box at
the top of the window. If I initiate a search by typing `/`, I cannot
type into the search box. I can paste into the box with a middle-
click.
If I open the same PDF using Nautilus, it works as it should, i.e. I
can type text in the two boxes (typing a page number and pressing
enter takes me to that page, typing a word in the search box searches
for that word in the document).
This is not
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/evince/+bug/1247621, because
my home directory is located in `/home`, as expected by AppArmour.
This problem did not exist prior to 13.10. I have reproduced on two
computers, one of which has a clean install of 13.10.
