Ok, I installed the change with the last DBUS argument for both Evince
and Atril.  I'm not inclined to support old Atril versions with old
APIs.  In the Changes section of the manual I specified Atril 1.9.1 is
required for the forward/inverse search to work.  I hope you'll enjoy
the change once you'll get a more recent version of the viewer.

Bye,
