Never mind. evince was made for Gnome users, which I'm not. > I'll wait to see what gives re mcomix...

But this really looks like something to be fixed on the mcomix side. It has already been fixed in version 2.2.0: https://sourceforge.net/p/mcomix/git/ci/master/tree/ChangeLog If I'm reading correctly, 2.2.1 is in the tree, so you could see if unmasking that one before it gets stabilized is a possibility. The relevant change appears to be: https://sourceforge.net/p/mcomix/git/ci/04785a835b6c0e0782c9d0689686b0c1139febb1/tree/mcomix/run.py?diff=ae7d6a03f001de3241e586b1b285ce624383f344 from https://sourceforge.net/p/mcomix/git/ci/04785a835b6c0e0782c9d0689686b0c1139febb1/ (Which might be useful in case you want to try to add a patch to the version you currently have installed) -- Nuno Silva
