The bug has been opened on https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/183274

"Binary package hint: evince

Bug #183271 results in Evince being unable to open http://www.smile.co.uk/terms . It fails with a rather uninformative message "error 2".

I suppose "error 2" is better than nothing (as with KPDF) but it is still pretty uninformative.

(NB: The bug here is not that it won' t open; that's the above mentioned bug in Poppler.)
