So AppArmour is making it's presence felt - disallowing Evince to open the user's files named "__.pdf-" but still thankfully opening user files named "__.pdf". The solution is simple, change the above mailcap entry to read e.g. as follows: application/pdf; (mv %s %s.pdf\; evince %s.pdf\; rm -f %s.pdf)& sleep 0.2s; test=test -n "$DISPLAY"

I just saw a link to Zeberg and Pääbo (2020) The major genetic risk factor for severe COVID-19 is inherited from Neandertals.[0] The abstract follows: | A recent genetic association study (Ellinghaus et al. 2020) | identified a gene cluster on chromosome 3 as a risk locus for | respiratory failure in SARS-CoV-2. Recent data comprising | 3,199 hospitalized COVID-19 patients and controls reproduce | this and find that it is the major genetic risk factor for | severe SARS-CoV-2 infection and hospitalization (COVID-19 | Host Genetics Initiative). Here, we show that the risk is | conferred by a genomic segment of ~50 kb that is inherited | from Neandertals and occurs at a frequency of ~30% in south | Asia and ~8% in Europe. Maybe we ought to protect old people, those with serious health problems, and carriers of this genetic sequence, and let everyone else get on with their lives. 0) https://www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/2020.07.03.186296v1.full.pdf
