Please unblock package cups-filters
[ Reason ]
After the upload of qpdf (11.3.0-1), cups-filters started to FTBFS (-> #1032546)
This is due to qpdf now requiring C++17.
[ Impact ]
cups-filters can no longer be built.
[ Tests ]
The package has a small testsuite that passes.
[ Risks ]
There is no code change but "only" a removal of -std=c++0x from the
CXXFLAGS. So there seems to be just a low risk.
cups-filters is a key package with no alternatives.
[ Checklist ]
[x] all changes are documented in the d/changelog
[x] I reviewed all changes and I approve them
[x] attach debdiff against the package in testing
[ Other info ]
In order to not being swamped by lintian messages, I also had to update
some lintian-overrides.
(yes timing of lintian update could have been better)
unblock cups-filters/1.28.17-2
