Package: luatex
Version: 0.46.0-1
Severity: important
Tags: patch
Justification: fails to build from source

Hello.

The debian/control indicates that luatex 0.46.0-1 needs libpoppler-dev >= 0.6.
But, when compiling againts libpoppler-dev 0.8.7-2, for instance:
[…]
configure: error: did not find poppler-0.10 or better
make: *** [build-stamp] Error 1
dpkg-buildpackage: failure: debian/rules build gave error exit status 2

So I suggest to put libpoppler-dev >= 0.10 as a build dependency. :-)

Regards,

PS: Even with libpoppler-dev >= 0.10, it does not build, because of a compile
    error, but that is another problem.

Hi guys,

can you please explain me what you try to address?
A backport?
A fun build on some stable system?

If you want that fix the deps please by yourself.

Yes, so what, there is no libpoppler 0.6 in Debian. I could even write
	0.31415962

Yes, because it is not *THOUGHT* for lenny. Simple. Lenny has its own
package, please build that one.

Try it there.

Listen, I am closing this bug again. If anyone open it again then so it
be, but I want to make it possible to make backports easy, by changing
the patch in debian/patches/series, and no need to twiddle with
the control file.

If you do NOT like that please:
change policy that I can ask for 
	Build-Depends: libpoppler-dev (>= 0.12.0), libpoppler-dev (<< 0.12.1)
because poppler is breaking the API permanently, and *I* don't care
to twist around in the build-deps permanently for making backports etc.

If you don't like it so it be.

Man, why are currently all the people here are soooo complicated.

Best wishes

Norbert
