Bug Description
When I create a pdf with a link to an absolute path (e.g. /home/me/link.pdf) and open it in evince it tries to read it as relative to the path of the opened pdf, e.g. if I open /home/me/doc.pdf and click on the preceding link evince tries to open /home/me/
Ubuntu 16.04.1
Evince 3.18.2-1ubuntu4

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and help make Ubuntu better. Unfortunately, we cannot work on this bug because your description didn't include enough information. You may find it helpful to read 'How to report bugs effectively' http:// www.chiark. greenend. org.uk/ ~sgtatham/ bugs.html. We'd be grateful if you would then provide a more complete description of the problem.
We have instructions on debugging some types of problems at http:// wiki.ubuntu. com/DebuggingPr ocedures.
At a minimum, we need:
1. The specific steps or actions you took that caused you to encounter the problem.
2. The behavior you expected.
3. The behavior you actually encountered (in as much detail as possible).
Thanks!
