>Can you also test with 2.24 from experimental?

I installed:

libgtk2.0-0_2.14.7-4_amd64.deb
libgnome-keyring0_2.24.1-1_amd64.deb
evince_2.24.2-1_amd64.deb
evince-dbg_2.24.2-1_amd64.deb

and now I get:

$ /usr/bin/evince

** (evince:13014): WARNING **: Failed to create dbus proxy for org.gnome.SettingsDaemon: Could not get owner of name 'org.gnome.SettingsDaemon': no such name

Evince opens a window, but Help / About says it's 2.22.2.  Given these
strangenesses, I do not know whether testing would be significant.

I then asked aptitude to install evince: it removed evince-dbg,
downgraded the rest of the above packages and now everything works as
before.  Let me know if I should reinstall 2.24.2 and go on.
