Sorry, seems I managed to post this when testing different subjects - searching for similar threads ...
I'm trying to find out why Evince suddenly went missing.
I haven't actively (as far as I know) done anything to remove it, but in Synaptic evince-common (3.28.4-0ubuntu1.2) is what's installed. Not evince itself.
Not sure when this might have happened, one day I couldn't open pdf files anymore (but got to see other files, so unexpected results in a couple of ways).
Didn't make the connection at the time, but I noticed earlier that Scribus also disappeared, so my first guess would be that this is more of a general problem with som sort of dependencies rather than Evince or Scribus?
On the other hand, there would be more threads on this subject if this had happened to a lot of users.
I hope that fixing this is as simple as installing Evince again, but I would like to know what caused the problem in the first place.
Other than using eepDater, I've installed Master PDF Editor manually:
Code:
sudo dpkg -i master-pdf-editor-5.4.38-qt5.amd64
Files open fine in Thunderbird and in the file manager if I choose open with Master PDF Editor.
