Why is rebuilding the deps a hack? If there's something fragile about it, couldn't we just back out the 003_refcount patch for Dapper, and issue an update later? I assume libpoppler will need several security updates throughout Dapper's support period. Won't some of these break ABI? Is there a mechanism in place to distribute re-built dependencies for such updates?
Is there a more appropriate forum for such questions? -- evince crashes when highlighting text at line end https://launchpad.net/bugs/24970 -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
