Wrong permissions when using Save As

[Scott Severance]

Steps to reproduce:
===================

1. Download a PDF from the internet.
2. When Firefox asks what to do with the file, choose the option to open it in Evince.
3. Once the PDF is open in Evince, do a File > Save as.
4. Observe that the file is created with the permissions 0400.

Correct behavior:
=================

Evince should follow the same permissions model as other programs, using the umask to determine the default permissions, which would be 0644 on a default Ubuntu machine.

Impact of the bug:
==================

Because of the incorrect permissions, it's impossible to directly overwrite an affected PDF without manually fixing the permissions. It makes no sense not to give the owner write permission by default, as any situations where 0400 permissions were desirable would surely be corner cases.

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. The issue you are reporting is an upstream one and it would be nice if somebody having it could send the bug to the developers of the software by following the instructions at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Bugs/Upstream/GNOME. If you have done so, please tell us the number of the upstream bug (or the link), so we can add a bugwatch that will inform us about its status. Thanks in advance.

Was a bug report sent to the developers? I'm asking, because I couldn't find a correlating bug report on:

https://bugzilla.gnome.org/browse.cgi?product=evince
