I'm still having this bug, and it does seem like it's hard-crashing my system. I want to get my stability back, but I can't uninstall evince since gnome-core and about 50 other pacakges seem to depend on it.
I'm on Oneiric 64, I have evince 3.2.1-0ubuntu2.2 and apparmor 2.7.0~beta1+bzr1774-1ubuntu2 The mentioned change in the files IS present: - /dev/.udev/db/* r, + /dev/.udev/{data,db}/* r, The errors in the log are like this: Apr 2 11:16:01 dude kernel: [ 6565.133886] type=1400 audit(1333383361.979:32): apparmor="DENIED" operation="open" parent=1 profile="/usr/bin/evince" name="/run/udev/data/b253:3" pid=24587 comm="evince" requested_ mask="r" denied_mask="r" fsuid=1000 ouid=0 Apr 2 11:16:02 dude kernel: [ 6565.197633] type=1400 audit(1333383362.043:33): apparmor="DENIED" operation="open" parent=1 profile="/usr/bin/evince" name="/run/udev/data/b253:3" pid=24586 comm="evince" requested_ mask="r" denied_mask="r" fsuid=1000 ouid=0 Apr 2 11:16:02 dude kernel: [ 6565.198459] type=1400 audit(1333383362.043:34): apparmor="DENIED" operation="open" parent=1 profile="/usr/bin/evince" name="/run/udev/data/b253:3" pid=24587 comm="evince" requested_ mask="r" denied_mask="r" fsuid=1000 ouid=0 Apr 2 11:16:02 dude kernel: [ 6565.198680] type=1400 audit(1333383362.043:35): apparmor="DENIED" operation="open" parent=1 profile="/usr/bin/evince" name="/run/udev/data/b253:3" pid=24587 comm="evince" requested_ mask="r" denied_mask="r" fsuid=1000 ouid=0 Apr 2 11:16:02 dude kernel: [ 6565.214287] type=1400 audit(1333383362.059:36): apparmor="DENIED" operation="open" parent=1 profile="/usr/bin/evince" name="/run/udev/data/b253:3" pid=24587 comm="evince" requested_ mask="r" denied_mask="r" fsuid=1000 ouid=0 Apr 2 11:16:05 dude kernel: [ 6568.268409] type=1400 audit(1333383365.115:37): apparmor="DENIED" operation="open" parent=1 profile="/usr/bin/evince" name="/run/udev/data/b253:3" pid=24586 comm="evince" requested_ mask="r" denied_mask="r" fsuid=1000 ouid=0 Apr 2 11:16:07 dude kernel: [ 6570.325875] type=1400 audit(1333383367.171:38): apparmor="DENIED" operation="open" parent=1 profile="/usr/bin/evince" name="/run/udev/data/b253:3" pid=24586 comm="evince" requested_ mask="r" denied_mask="r" fsuid=1000 ouid=0 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to evince in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/766882 Title: [apparmor] evince need access to /dev/.udev/data/b Status in “evince” package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in “evince” source package in Natty: Fix Released Status in “evince” source package in Oneiric: Fix Released Bug description: Binary package hint: evince I get warning in dmesg about denied access: [ 567.296832] type=1400 audit(1303280769.949:31): apparmor="DENIED" operation="open" parent=1 profile="/usr/bin/evince" name="/dev/.udev/data/b8:13" pid=3292 comm="evince" requested_mask="r" denied_mask="r" fsuid=1000 ouid=0 [ 567.298080] type=1400 audit(1303280769.951:32): apparmor="DENIED" operation="open" parent=1 profile="/usr/bin/evince" name="/dev/.udev/data/b8:13" pid=3292 comm="evince" requested_mask="r" denied_mask="r" fsuid=1000 ouid=0 Looks like apparmor rule should be corrected to allow it: /dev/.udev/db/* r, + /dev/.udev/data/b[0-9]* r, /etc/udev/udev.conf r, /sys/devices/**/block/**/uevent r, ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 11.04 Package: evince 2.32.0-0ubuntu12 ProcVersionSignature: Error: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: '/proc/version_signature' Uname: Linux 2.6.39-rc2-00041-gdaab147 x86_64 Architecture: amd64 Date: Wed Apr 20 08:48:32 2011 InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 10.10 "Maverick Meerkat" - Alpha amd64 (20100803.1) ProcEnviron: LANGUAGE=C:de_DE:en LANG=de_DE.UTF-8 SHELL=/bin/bash SourcePackage: evince UpgradeStatus: Upgraded to natty on 2011-03-17 (33 days ago) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/evince/+bug/766882/+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
