Public bug reported: When I create a pdf with a link to an absolute path (e.g. /home/me/link.pdf) and open it in evince it tries to read it as relative to the path of the opened pdf, e.g. if I open /home/me/doc.pdf and click on the preceding link evince tries to open /home/me/home/me/link.pdf. It should open /home/me/link.pdf, otherwise the user is unable to link to files outside the local directory
