This problem persists in Ubuntu 16.04 and beyond. I can provide screen
shots if necessary. If the path or file contains an open bracket ([)
the thumbnail will not generate and the file will not open.

Title:
If folder path to .cbz file contains [, file will fail to open
reporting all pages are empty
Status in Evince:
Fix Released
Status in evince package in Ubuntu:
Incomplete
Bug description:
Binary package hint: evince
If the folder path to a comic book archive file (.cbz at least)
contains an open square-bracket ([), Document Viewer will not be able
to open the file claiming the document only contains empty pages.
This is not the case if the file name contains the opening bracket.
The same file as zip (cbz and zip are the same files just using
different extensions) opens as expected (Archive Manager).
Image files (.jpg for example) open as expected in the same folder
path (Eye of Gnome).
Portable Document (.pdf) files open as expected in the same folder
path (Document Viewer).
Can anyone confirm this behavior?
Can anyone direct me to the best place to file a bug report?
Thanks.
(I tested this on 9.10 (works properly) and 10.04 and 10.10 (broken as
described above).)
