It should open /home/me/link.pdf, otherwise the user is unable to link to files outside the local directory Ubuntu 16.04.1 Evince 3.18.2-1ubuntu4 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/evince/+bug/1619901/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages Post to : desktop-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
