Public bug reported:

Dear maintainer,

Evince 49 changed its D-Bus namespace from `org.gnome.evince` to
`org.gnome.Evince`.

As a consequence, AUCTeX 13.2 can no longer communicate correctly with
Evince for SyncTeX: forward search reaches the correct location but does
not show the red highlight, while inverse search (`Ctrl`+click in
Evince) does not work.

The following simple patch updates the Evince D-Bus name from `evince`
to `Evince` in AUCTeX. After applying it, both forward and inverse
SyncTeX search work again.

[patch follows]
