Bug 245545: graphics/evince: Missing print dialogs in 3.28.5_13
https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=3D245545



--- Description ---
The evince print dialogue no longer works in 3.28.5_13.  Previously I had
3.28.5_8, but I cannot explain why the former worked and the latter does no=
t.=20
I updated the rest of ports at the same time, so it is possibly some other
dependency that is the root cause (gtk3 seems most likely).

Regardless, attempting to print a PDF produces no user visible response.  O=
n a
console, the following message is printed:

  (evince:90654): Gtk-WARNING **: 15:01:28.786:
GtkPrintOperation::create-custom-widget not supported with portal

It seems that GTK has invented some sandboxing mechanism called "portals," =
and
evince now runs in this mode (or something like that).	The mechanism is
supposed to have a print service listening on DBUS, provided by the
xdg-desktop-portal-gtk software.  Unfortunately, we do not seem to have
xdg-desktop-portal-gtk in FreeBSD ports at this time, and evince (gtk?) is
missing a dependency on that service.
