This bug was fixed in the package evince - 2.27.90-0ubuntu8

---------------
evince (2.27.90-0ubuntu8) karmic; urgency=low

  [ Sebastien Bacher ]
  * debian/evince.postinst:
    - let the packaging tools add their snippets so the schemas are registered
      (lp: #422777)

  [ Jamie Strandboge ]
  * debian/apparmor-profile.abstraction: allow the claws email client
    (LP: #423236)
  * debian/postrm: cleanup apport .pyc file
  * debian/apparmor-profile: allow evince to transition to itself, so print
    preview works (LP: #423687)
  * debian/apparmor-profile.abstraction: use new ubuntu-* abstractions for
    email clients and web browsers
  * debian/control*: adjust Suggests to unversioned and Conflicts with apparmor
    << 2.3.1+1403-0ubuntu18 for the ubuntu-* abstractions change
