Thank you for using Ubuntu and taking the time to report a bug. This path is: Decoded: /windows/Documents and Settings/Dave/My Documents/test/
AppArmor has denied access to this directory because it is not a standard location for files, therefore you must adjust your profile to allow access to the /windows folder. This can be done by adding the following to /etc/apparmor.d/usr.bin.evince: /windows/** rw, Followed by: $ sudo apparmor_parser -r -T -W /etc/apparmor.d/usr.bin.evince Keep in mind that if there is a flaw in evince or (much more likely) one of the image/PDF libraries, opening a malicious file could allow an attacker to write to this directory. See http://en.opensuse.org/AppArmor_Geeks#Anatomy_of_a_Profile for more information on AppArmor profiling. ** Changed in: evince (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed => Invalid ** Changed in: evince (Ubuntu) Status: Invalid => Won't Fix ** Summary changed: - cannot create directory from file dialog + cannot create directory outside of $HOME -- cannot create directory outside of $HOME https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/490230 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
