The CJK folks might request adding poppler-data to the
japanese-desktop, korean-desktop and chinese_*-desktop tasks (see
-devel for thread).


Ofcourse, theoretically, all this should happen much earlier in the
releaseprocess but experience has shown that such "polishing" stuff
always happens at the very end of the releaseprocess...:-|

Given the well documented argument bringed by Michael, I'd vote toadd
consolekit as requested, particularly if that's not too invasive
(dependencies, etc.).
