Yeah. No chance getting that to work. I opt for reverting evince to the
old version until it works properly. Seriously, evince is next to
useless when wach time I open a document I have to maximize the window,
switch the side pane to index instead of the rather useless thumbnails,
then find the page I had... If you have to do that five times in a row
that's no longer annoying, but a complete failure.
