I request permission to do the transition for poppler 25.03. This is the latest monthly release. Poppler unfortunately bumps the soname with every monthly release. I was hoping to target poppler 25.01 for Trixie but Papers 48 RC requires poppler 25.02. I worked around this for Papers 48 Beta but the dependency is stronger this time. I would prefer to not release Trixie with the Papers app stuck on a beta version and I feel more confident doing this transition than trying to undo the dependency bump. I have completed rebuilds for reverse depends using Debusine. The build IDs range from 73011 to 73103. See https://debusine.debian.net/debusine/System/work-request/ Failed builds ========== 1. apvlv - Already fails to build in Unstable. https://bugs.debian.org/1099216 2. evince - Builds ok in my sbuild unshare and in Unstable a few days ago. The build failure is in an appstream build test unrelated to this poppler transition so I think this can be ignored. 3. bookworm - Similar build failure to evince but builds ok in my sbuild unshare. 4. libreoffice - Rene has already identified the probable fix and is doing a test build 5. peony - Not in Testing 6. scribus - I did an NMU which fixed this and confirmed with a local test build 7. sdaps - Not in Testing 8. xpdf - Filed https://bugs.debian.org/1099553 Fixed upstream so can be NMU'd easily I believe I did many more reverse-depends builds than were needed for this transition and apvlv, bookworm, evince, and peony aren't in the actual soname rebuild list. Transition tracker ============== The auto tracker should be good. Waiting for acceptance by ftpmasters though. Old is libpoppler145. New is libpoppler147. Thank you, Jeremy Bícha
