Description:
Evince is supposed to support xps documents from version 3.0. This does not work for arch linux. The error being "filetype not supported." I suppose evince is not compiled with xps support in arch and from what I have read it requires libgxps as a dependency as well.


Steps to reproduce:
Open an xps document.
This task depends upon

Reason for closing:  Won't implement
Additional comments about closing:  There's no libgxps release available yet and it's disabled by default in evince, so we keep it disabled for now.

libgxps didn't had even a 0.0.1 release. This means for me that is not ready for production and shouldn't be pack. In addition xps support is disabled by default in evince.

If you want this support, you can recompile evince by adding in configure --enable-xps
