Bug#436164: kpdf: Should link against poppler
Package: kpdf
Version: 4:3.5.7-3
Severity: important
[I'm considering this RC, but filing as important nonetheless for now]
kpdf embeds a copy of xpdf, which causes a huge maintenance overhead
whenever a security problem in found in xpdf.
For Lenny kpdf should link against the library version of the xpdf
source, poppler.
Cheers,
Moritz
