[Bug 447292] Re: permission denied on various files while starting evince

[Jamie Strandboge]

DaTa, your setup is non-standard and as such you will need to adjust /etc/apparmor.d/tunables/home from:
@{HOMEDIRS}=/home/

to:
@{HOMEDIRS}=/home/ /export/home

However, evince still won't run correctly due to #415632. A fix is
pending for that issue and should be available in the next karmic
kernel.

I highly suggest rather than removing all of AppArmor, that you simply
disable the problematic profile. See
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingApparmor for details. There are many
profiles enabled in the default install which greatly improves the
security of your machine, and disabling all of AppArmor is not
recommended.

** Package changed: evince (Ubuntu) => apparmor (Ubuntu)

** Changed in: apparmor (Ubuntu)
       Status: New => Won't Fix

** Summary changed:

- permission denied on various files while starting evince
+ AppArmor does not allow access to /exports/home

** Summary changed:

- AppArmor does not allow access to /exports/home
+ AppArmor does not allow access when @{HOME} is not /home
