Public bug reported:

The evince AppArmor profile seems to miss an entry for 
/var/lib/snapd/desktop/applications/mimeinfo.cache.
If evince is launched, the following gets logged to syslog:

kernel: [81577.596186] audit: type=1400 audit(1503306090.062:2011):
apparmor="DENIED" operation="open" profile="/usr/bin/evince"
name="/var/lib/snapd/desktop/applications/mimeinfo.cache" pid=32268
comm="evince" requested_mask="r" denied_mask="r" fsuid=1000 ouid=0

I don't know if this should be allowed or denied. If you could add the
correct behaviour to the profile, that would be nice; otherwise, every
time evince is launched, a notification pops up (apparmor-notify
installed).


(Workaround:

Add to original profile (/etc/apparmor.d/usr.bin.evince):
  #include <local/usr.bin.evince>

Insert into local profile (/etc/apparmor.d/local/usr.bin.evince):
  /var/lib/snapd/desktop/applications/mimeinfo.cache r,
)

Release: Ubuntu 16.04.3 LTS
Package Version: evince-common 3.18.2-1ubuntu4.1
