Hi, On Sid, the new evince peackage no longer enables me to read pdf files with orca. The browse mode with f7 moves the caret, but no screen reader feedback. atril works, but not evince. We dont know wether the problem is related to something not implemented in Evince 49, or at-spi does not have some useful thing. Is it due to Debian or upstream? The response is not easy to do. We plan to reportbug to evince maintainer, but I think the support of a11y team is useful tu help upstream devs or maintainers of the package to track the problem. Otehrwise, atril may be the appropriate choixe for future debian releases where we want to have pdf readable. Best regards,
