Bug#848631: Can I take over the xpdf package?
Hi Manasori,
I was never allowed to maintain that package since I wanted to use the
upstream backend. Debian requested that I should continue to support
the from xpdf upstream diverging poppler backend.
As I see xpdf with the poppler backend is already maintained by the
Debian QA Group <packages@qa.debian.org>. Latest version is 3.04-12
released 17 Dec 2018. From the changelog file names as Gianfranco
Costamagna, Iain Lane and others show up. And the latest version
carries your name!
HTH!
