           Summary: Evince should include DVI support
           Product: Ubuntu
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: other
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: evince
        AssignedTo: seb128 at ubuntu.com
        ReportedBy: occ at cs.bath.ac.uk
         QAContact: desktop-bugs at lists.ubuntu.com


evince 0.4.0 includes resaonable DVI support which in many respects is much more
useful than xdvi,

The ubuntu build of evince does not have this compiled in. 

While DVI is rarely used as a document format for interchange it is very useful
to have a good viewer (like evince) when one is authoring in latex. 

fix: 
add a dependency on libkpathsea 
add --enable-dvi to the configure options
