From: Fabian Thomas <fabian <at> fabianthomas.de> To: bug-auctex <at> gnu.org Subject: 13.1.1; Evince synctex: env variables not inherited Date: Wed, 21 Sep 2022 11:42:46 +0200
When using TeX-view to open the current configured pdf with synctex
forward search, the evince pdf viewer does not inherit or load
environment variables from e.g., ~/.zshenv.
Other viewers like zathura or okular work perfectly fine.
When I do cat /proc/`pidof okular`/environ, I get the full environment
with variables from my ~/.zshenv, but when I do
cat /proc/`pidof evince`/environ I get a plain version with no custom
variables. When I start evince from command line everything works fine.
I suspect, that this is some issue about how evince is started via dbus
for synctex support.
Here is the output of cat /proc/`pidof evince`/environ when started from
emacs:

I use the following elisp code to set the viewer to evince (doom emacs):
