I'd like to update poppler to version 25.01 for Debian 13.
This requires a transition for libraries libpoppler and libpoppler-cpp: the
former gets a SONAME bump with every monthly release, and this time the -cpp
library got bumped too.
I've already checked all rdepends in sid and submitted patches or asked for
packaging new versions of the affected packages which needed source changes for
API differences. This is always handled by #ifdef'ing so that the same source
can compile against either version of the API.
As of today all rdepends from sid can already be binNMU'd except:
* libreoffice: fix is committed in salsa but unreleased
* scribus: there is a new minor version upstream to be packaged: we would upload
this as NMU if the maintainer doesn't in time
* calligra: could not verify the build because it already FTBFS for different
reasons - but it is sid-only so not a blocker
The auto tracker here is correct: https://release.debian.org/transitions/html/
auto-poppler.html
I'm not a maintainer of the poppler package; my point of contact for help and
sponsoring the upload is Jeremy Bícha.
I'm confident we can finish the transition by the transition freeze, just
announced to be 2025-03-15.
Go ahead.
Cheers,
Emilio
