How can I install the latest version of Evince?

I have Ubuntu 12.04 with Evince 3.4.0. This version of Evince has some bugs (in particular showing patterns) that are fixed in the version 3.8.0. Does anyone know if there is some repository to have Evince up to date? I would prefer this option (repository) but if this can not be done I would accept also a manual installation of the up to date version.

I had Evince 3.6.1. The way I upgraded, I just press Ctrl+Alt+T on your keyboard to open Terminal. When it opens, run the command(s) below:

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:gnome3-team/gnome3 
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install evince

Below are before and after images.

Keep in mind that the current stable release is 3.6.1.

Or use Synaptic. If not installed, you can install it by, just press Ctrl+Alt+T on your keyboard to open Terminal. When it opens, run the command(s) below:

sudo apt-get install synaptic

Edit

Evince for 12.04 is not available in the repo anymore. its only available for 12.10, and 13.04. To get it for other Ubuntu versions, check here or here.

If you try to install via pre-compiled binaries you can end up breaking your system because of the depencies.

I have lately tackled the same problem and the only way I could solve it was to download the latest version of Evince (in my case it was 3.26) and compile it manually. Luckily, there's a guide to doing here:

./configure --prefix=/usr --enable-compile-warnings=minimum --enable-introspection --disable-static && make

In my case I had to manually install 6 extra packages (all in the repo) to successfully run the .configure command, but nothing google can't help.

Since this might be useful for Ubuntu users, which are doomed to use a very out-of-date version of Evince, and for the sake of completion, here are the packages I had to install in my Linux Mint 18.2 in order to compile:

libxml2-dev libsecret-1-dev libnautilus-extension-dev gobject-introspection-dev or libgirepository1.0-dev libpoppler-glib-dev itstool
