Bug Description
Binary package hint: evince
I love Evince, but this has bit me several times:
* directly open a .ps.tar or similar from Firefox, which starts the archive manager
* open the .ps in the archive, which starts Evince
* read a couple of pages from the document and click "Save a Copy" in the file menu.
* do something else
* close the archive manager
* procrastinate some more
* come back to Evince, which suddenly can't load any more pages that weren't already seen although I had already saved a copy, because the archive manager removed the document in /tmp and Evince is still using that location.
I see how this wouldn't happen to me if I never closed the archive manager or if I properly saved the archive, unpacked and then later moved the document to my paper stash and deleted the archive.. but wouldn't it be nicer to start reading pages from a copy, when it has explicitly been saved?
