Public bug reported:

Cinnamon uses "Nemo" /usr/bin/nemo as the file browser and default
apparmor config is too strict and prevents "Open Containing Folder"
feature from working and instead an error message will appear:

Failed to execute child process "nemo" (Permission denied)"

A simple fix would be to add line

  /usr/bin/nemo Cx -> sanitized_helper,   # Cinnamon

below the line

  /usr/bin/thunar Cx -> sanitized_helper,   # XFCE

in file /etc/apparmor.d/usr.bin.evince
