First machine:
Ubuntu 23.10
Evince 45.0-1 ($ apt show evince)
Second machine:
Ubuntu 24.04
Evince 46.0-1build1
I've also added Google Drive through Online Accounts and can't open PDFs with
evince 45.0-1.
- Opening image files works by double-clicking in Nautilus.
- Opening Google Drive PDFs in Firefox works (only tried on 1st machine,
though).
- Can also copy/paste files into, and out of, Google Drive using
Nautilus.
Double-clicking PDF in Nautilus, Error
--------------------------------------
Unable to open document “file:///run/user/1000/gvfs/google-
