Hi, Thanks for your help.

This did not fix the issue. But it certainly changed things !

I no longer have the red bar saying "Failed to execute child process
"exo-open" (Permission denied)", instead I have an alert saying :

"""
Failed to launch preferred application for category 'WebBrowser'.
Failed to execute child process 
'/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/xfce4/exo-1/exo-helper-1' (Permission denied).
"""

So I figured I only needed to add  "usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/xfce4/exo-1
/exo-helper-1 ixr,"  to /etc/apparmor.d/local/usr.bin.evince

But that didn't work as expected, I don't have the alert anymore but it
segfaults right after that. (I can include the additional information
for that if you want.) But I am not sure adding that second line to
apparmor's configuration was the right thing to do in the first place.
