Bug Description

Binary package hint: evince

When I'm searching a document written in Hebrew and I type the word correctly, Evince doesn't find the word I'm looking for. I have to type it backwards (e.g. "drow" instead of "word") if I want Evince to find it.

Sure :)
I forgot to mention that I'm using Hardy. I update my system every day and I have the proposed repository enabled.
