Package: ghostscript Version: 9.04~dfsg-3 Severity: normal 0. ghostscript lies about the toolkit used to create the XMP in x:xmptk. It uses an identifier normally associated with Adobe's toolkit even though it does not use that toolkit[0]. The attribute is unspecified by the XMP specification, so it should probably be removed. 1. The value for rdf:about is not a URI. XMP is based on RDF, and RDF requires that rdf:about be a URI. The XMP specification does as well. There's really no reason to generate a UUID per document and rdf:about="" is more meaningful anyway, so again, it should probably be removed. 2. "uuid:" (as used in xapMM:DocumentID) is not a registered URI scheme. There is a perfectly good existing URN specification for that, so "urn:uuid:" should be used instead. (The use of "adobe:ns:meta/" as a namespace is unfortunate, but we're stuck with it now.) There is a PDF demonstrating these bugs in #649909. (I can clone these into separate bugs if you'd prefer.) [0] I was actually surprised to see this at first because I stopped work on XMP upstream because they refused to add a dependency on exempi and I didn't really feel like reinventing the wheel just for them. I then realized that there was no external dependency at all, but instead some text hard-coded into the source. -- System Information: Debian Release: wheezy/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 3.1.0-1-amd64 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages ghostscript depends on: ii cdebconf [debconf-2.0] 0.158 ii debconf [debconf-2.0] 1.5.41 ii debianutils 4.0.4 ii gsfonts 1:8.11+urwcyr1.0.7~pre44-4.2 ii libc6 2.13-21 ii libgs9 9.04~dfsg-3 ghostscript recommends no packages.
