[Bug 460125] Re: AppArmor not allowing evince to read files needed for theming

SRU REQUEST

1. gnome abstraction does not allow access to themes. Fix is trivial.

2. The fix is not in Lucid yet

3. The fix is to adjust profiles/apparmor.d/abstractions/gnome:
  @{HOME}/.themes/                r,
  @{HOME}/.themes/**              r,

4. I don't have a test case. The problem was identified in the user's
dmesg and it is clear that it could be an issue for some users down the
line.

5. The regression potential is very low. We only allow access to files
that we didn't previously have access to.
