Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: evince
This is with up-to-date Lucid, installed from RC.
Today I tried to open evince for the first time after installation, by
opening a PDF file from a message in Evolution. Evince failed to open. I
tried a few more times, then downloaded the file and tried to open it
from nautilus, to no avail. Finally, I tried opening evince directly
from the command line. It complained:
** (evince:20436): WARNING **: Error creating last_settings file: Error
opening file '/home/pablo/.gnome2/evince/last_settings': No such file or
directory
Segmentation fault
I then created the missing file with 'touch
/home/pablo/.gnome2/evince/last_settings', and evince now opens
normally.
The program obviously shouldn't segfault on a missing configuration
file..
