Same problem here, all our files are on a NAS (cifs share). Ubuntu 16.04 / Evince 3.18.2
When we want to "edit" a pdf file with evince (create annotation in my case) and overwrite the file.. is not possible, i got the same error "Error renaming temporary file: Permission denied". So we still work with Adobe Acrobat PRO by example and this is stupid because this functionality work great with local file in evince. I'll test the workaround proposed by Alex D (owner /**/.goutputstream-* rw) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1567565 Title: Permission error saving a file To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/evince/+bug/1567565/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
