[Bug 778638] Re: evince-thunbnailer gets permission denied from apparmor (and hangs the system for long periods of time)

[Jamie Strandboge]

Marc, thanks for your patch!

The patch looks good except that you included the fix for bug #807507 as
part of the patch, but didn't include it in the changelog. Since it
isn't clear what the intent is here, please either update the patch to
remove this fix or update the changelog to include a description of this
fix (and update bug #807507 according to
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/StableReleaseUpdates).

Please mark the bug back to 'Confirmed' and resubscribe ubuntu-sponsors
when the changes are complete. Thanks again.

Title:
  evince-thunbnailer gets permission denied from apparmor (and hangs the
  system for long periods of time)

Status in “evince” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in “evince” source package in Natty:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: evince

  On my workstation (10.65.4.190), my $(HOME) is mounted from an nfs
  server (10.65.21.2) and for some reason apparmor denies evince-
  thumbnailer to do its work. This causes _long_ delays blocking the
  complete desktop for many minutes every now and then:

  
  [   97.012905] type=1400 audit(1304700706.641:24): apparmor="DENIED" operation="sendmsg" parent=2437 profile="/usr/bin/evince-thumbnailer" pid=2464 comm="evince-thumbnai" laddr=10.65.4.190 lport=712 faddr=10.65.21.2 fport=2049 family="inet" sock_type="stream" protocol=6
  [   97.012921] nfs: RPC call returned error 13

  This is on maverick, but also on oneiric

  evince version: 2.32.0-0ubuntu12.1
  apparmor version: 2.6.1-0ubuntu3
