Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: evince

Evince cannot create a directory using the "create directory" button
from the gnome file dialog. It reports an error "Cannot create
directory: permission denied". This does not happen if I create the
directory within /home/, but it happens if I create it in a mounted
windows partition (to which I have write access). This seems to be an
apparmor problem (cf. bug #489170): /var/log/messages reports
