Description Jordi Mallach 2010-05-09 18:30:55 UTC 
I tried running evince on a new install:

jordi@aigua:~/Downloads$ evince 05097_PRA2_052.pdf 

** (evince:21132): WARNING **: Error creating last_settings file: S'ha produït un error en obrir el fitxer «/home/jordi/.gnome2/evince/last_settings»: El fitxer o directori no existeix

zsh: segmentation fault  evince 05097_PRA2_052.pdf

After creating the ~/.gnome2/evince directory, Evince works as expected.

Thanks for taking the time to report this bug.
Without a stack trace from the crash it's very hard to determine what caused it.
Can you get us a stack trace? Please see http://live.gnome.org/GettingTraces for more information on how to do so. Thanks in advance!
