Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: evince

Ubuntu Maverick (10.10) system, upgraded to Natty (11.04), evince 2.32,
"classic" gnome desktop.

This is hard to explain... when I open a document in evince, and then I
pass the mouse over it in any way, it grabs the mouse and goes into a
document-scrolling mode.  I can not simply pass over the document, for
example, trying to go from one side of the screen to the other.  Once
the mouse enters evince (and it can either be in the left-hand section
that shows multiple pages, or in the main area that shows the document),
the pointer stays on the same part of the screen, and the document
slides around under it.

I end up having to use keyboard commands to either alt-tab and make
another application get focus, or maybe close the document using crtl-W
or alt-F-Q.

I thought that it might have had to do with me removing the overlay
scrollbars (I removed overlay-scrollbar and liboverlay-scrollbar-0.1-0
and I set LIBOVERLAY_SCROLLBAR=0).  But when I reinstalled the overlay
scrollbars, evince still grabbed the mouse.

I am perplexed.  Has anyone else seen this problem?
