Description Radek Duda 2021-01-19 10:27:51 UTC

Description of problem:
Evince does not open containing folder if file from URI is loaded. Nautilus is started and then abruptly closed.
"Do not have a permission to access requested location" message appears for a while.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
evince-3.28.4-8.el8.x86_64
nautilus-3.28.1-15.el8.x86_64

How reproducible:
always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Start evince and load some pdf from URI (e.g.: evince http://www.farnell.com/datasheets/2819352.pdf)
2. Click "file options"-> "Open containing folder"

Actual results:
Nautilus is started, but then abruptly closes. "Do not have a permission to access requested location" message appears for a while.

Expected results:
Containing folder is opened by Nautilus.

Comment 1 Radek Duda 2021-01-19 14:01:22 UTC

That is probably issue of given wrong file permission. 
If I save pdf file to /tmp dir, evince gives 600 permission. According to our test suite it should have 644, which is default permission according to our testcase (tested with gedit).

Comment 2 Marek Kašík 2021-02-16 17:23:10 UTC

The issue is that it tries to open the original URI but it is a http:// URI so it fails. I've created a merge request which uses the tmp directory where the downloaded document is instead. See https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/evince/-/merge_requests/312.

I'll wait few days whether upstream will accept it and devel_ack+ it then.

Comment 7 Bill Sanford 2021-04-16 16:18:32 UTC

Verified with evince-3.28.4-12 & nautilus-3.28.1-15.
