[Bug 415766] Re: evince makes openafs to kernel oops

[Simon Wilkinson]

As Marc notes, this is SELinux denying access to the AFS disk cache.
Sadly, when OpenAFS cannot open files it expects to see in its cache, it
panics, rather than returning a graceful error to userspace.

I'm not familiar with what Ubuntu's SELinux policy looks like (this
comment is a drive-by from an OpenAFS developer), but it would be worth
investigating there to see what rules it has with respect to
/var/cache/openafs
