Public bug reported:

I have a file named 
art%3A10.1007%2FBF01034471.pdf,
if I open document Properties (Alt+Return) for it I get
Location: 
file:///home/username/Documents/PDFs/art%253A10.1007%252FBF01034471.pdf.

So there are extra escape sequences for percent sign (I know that %25 is a code 
for %). If I try to 
ls -l /home/username/Documents/PDFs/art%253A10.1007%252FBF01034471.pdf I got 
ls: cannot access 
/home/username/Documents/PDFs/art%253A10.1007%252FBF01034471.pdf: No such file 
or directory.
If i try to navigate to correct file 
/home/username/Documents/PDFs/art%3A10.1007%2FBF01034471.pdf I get no error.

So there is an error in % sign processing in evince.
