** Changed in: poppler (Ubuntu Trusty)
   Importance: Undecided => Low

** Description changed:

- (SRU info on comment #11)
+ [Impact]
  
- Evince in ubuntu 14.04 (3.10.3-0ubuntu10.1) suffers from this bug:
- https://www.libreoffice.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=78042
+ * Many PDFs do not display correctly, including the boarding passes from a
+   major European airline.
  
- The test case which is attached to the upstream bug demonstrates the
- problem with Evince in Ubuntu.
+ * Printing a boarding pass is a common simple task which users expect to
+   work, and therefore should be fixed in the stable release.
  
- Hopefully, the patch attached to the upstream bug report would fix the
- problem in ubuntu.
+ * See upstream bug report for discussion about the mechanism of the fix.
+ 
+ [Test Case]
+ 
+ * Attempt to view the test case in the linked upstream bug using 'evince
+   attachment.pdf'.
+ 
+ * Observe corrupted text displayed.
+ 
+ [Regression Potential]
+ 
+ * Theoretically, other PDFs which currently display correctly could be
+ displayed incorrectly after this change, but is intended to emulate
+ acroread, so this is unlikely.
+ 
+ * Patch has been reviewed and committed upstream, so should be safe.
