Bug#661865: poppler-data/experimental: Conflicts with gs-cjk-resource and cmap-*, which are of priority optional
Package: poppler-data
Version: 0.4.5-3
Severity: important
Justification: §2.5: "optional packages should not conflict with each other"
X-Debbugs-Cc: debian-printing@lists.debian.org
Hi,
I was surprised to find poppler-data taking over from gs-cjk-resource
and the cmap packages. It might or might not be a good idea (does the
poppler project do a better job of maintaining CMap files than Adobe
does?) but I thought it was worth a bug report since this will require
changing or removing those other packages to reflect their becoming
obsolete.
By the way, if poppler-data is the canonical package to get CMap files
from, I don't think it makes sense for it to "Recommends:
poppler-utils" any more. Could you lower that to a Suggests?
Thanks for your work and hope that helps,
Jonathan
