Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: evince

When opening a directory that contains dvi files, the evince-thumbnailer uses 
100% cpu
but never completes when it tries to thumbnail a dvi file. This also blocks any 
further
thumbnailing of any other kind.

The dmesg log says:

[ 4782.417998] type=1400 audit(1290278467.228:600713): apparmor="DENIED"
operation="open" parent=25004 profile="/usr/bin/evince-thumbnailer"
name="/etc/texmf/" pid=25017 comm="evince-thumbnai" requested_mask="r"
denied_mask="r" fsuid=1000 ouid=0

repeated ad infinitum.

Perhaps metafont is not allowed to write/read the generated fonts?
