As suggested there, removing the "djvulibre-desktop" package worked around the problem. ** Bug watch added: Debian Bug tracker #876710 https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=876710 -- 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/1778088 Title: DjVu Files cannot be opened Status in evince package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: When trying to open a .djvu document, evince shows an error: File type DjVu image (image/vnd.djvu) is not supported Apparently, upstream has removed the image/vnd.djvu mimetype in an effort to treat single-page .djvu files more like images (https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=754467). The file in question is however a multi-page, yet the mime-type is not the expected "image/vnd.djvu+multipage": $ file book.djvu book.djvu: DjVu multiple page document $ file --mime-type book.djvu book.djvu: image/vnd.djvu This happens on all bionic machines I have access to.
