Bug#839869: transition: poppler 0.48.0

[Pino Toscano <pino@debian.org>]

Package: release.debian.org
Severity: normal
User: release.debian.org@packages.debian.org
Usertags: transition

I would like to ask a slot for a Poppler 0.48.0 transition.
Poppler 0.48.0 is hopefully going to be released this month, so it will
be uploaded to experimental first, as usual.

This transition impacts the existing poppler libraries in the following ways:
- libpoppler61 → libpoppler64
- libpoppler-glib8 -- BC with 0.44 (one new symbol)
- libpoppler-qt4-4 -- BC with 0.44 (few new symbols)
- libpoppler-qt5-1 -- BC with 0.44 (few new symbols)

Below it is a list of sources which are touched by the transition:

  boomaga
  calligra
  cups-filters
  emacs-pdf-tools
  gambas3
  gdal
  gdcm
  inkscape
  ipe-tools
  pdf2djvu
  pdf2htmlex
  popplerkit.framework
  texlive-bin
  texworks
  xpdf

I haven't tested them yet with versions > 0.44, although it seems there
should not be distruptive enough changes to the API of the private
libpoppler. I will deal with the failures anyway (as I have done in
the past).

Other cases:

* derivations
    This source builds a libpoppler-based utility application which is
    only used during the build to generate other data, and no trace of
    that application are left in the resulting arch:all package.

Ben file:

title = "poppler 0.48.0";
is_affected = .depends ~ "libpoppler61" | .depends ~ "libpoppler64";
is_good = .depends ~ "libpoppler64";
is_bad = .depends ~ "libpoppler61";

Thanks,
