Quoting https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Staying_close_to_upstream_projects
: "The Fedora Project focuses, as much as possible, on not deviating
from upstream in the software it includes in the repository. " - and
patching upstream software to not write to stdout or stderr would be
such a change, IMHO.

I would therefore file bugs at upstream bug report tools, not against
Fedora packages.
For instance, in evince's case, see
https://wiki.gnome.org/Apps/Evince/ReportingBugs

Best regards,
François
