evince no input in print dialog/insufficient logging

[Karl-Philipp Richter]

in evince 3.10.0 I have no possibilty to enter numbers into the pages field of the printing dialog. This is possibly related to another component than evince, but the log says
<output>
WARNING **: Unimplemented action: POPPLER_ACTION_UNKNOWN, please post a bug report in Evince bugzilla (http://bugzilla.gnome.org) with a testcase.
</output>
This is not bugzilla.gnome.org and I don't have a testcase, but I guess it's worth mentioning.
The issue is possibly related to missing permissions on a file (/home/richter/.config/gtk-3.0/settings.ini which is not very certain (see below) or another). The complete log is:
<output>

(keine Berechtigung means no permission)

The permission issue is not clear.

Thanks in advance for taking care about this.

All the best

[Sebastien Bacher (seb128)]

thank you for your bug report. is that specific to a particular pdf? Do you get the issue if you print to a file as well? I can't confirm here

[Karl-Philipp Richter (krichter722)]

Hi Sebastien,
thanks for your reply and sorry for my late answer. This seems to be a larger issue which also applies to tor browser bundle's firefox 17.0.10 esr (which also produces no logging at all). It is not bound to a specific PDF and applies to all input fields (e.g. page and zoom text field). I'm completely stuck here...

[Karl-Philipp Richter (krichter722)]

I guess one starting point would be to fix the permission error logging so that I can debug further.

[Karl-Philipp Richter (krichter722)]

Fixed it by reinstalling all packages. I guess this was never related to evince.
