Package: qpdfview
Version: 0.4.14-1
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

The search option 'whole words' if selected has no effect.

According to one of reports at developers site, this is likely due to too old
poppler version (below 0.31). However, I have the 0.44 installed. But when in
qpdfview I select Help/About, I see:

This version includes:
PDF support using Poppler 0.26.5
PS support using libspectre 0.2.7
DjVu support using DjVuLibre 3.5.27
Printing support using CUPS 1.7.5

So I suppose, that qpdfview in Debian has been compiled with poppler 0.26.5
when the poppler's API didn't contain the whole words search. So having the new
poppler installed doesn't help, as qpdfview does not really make an appropriate
function call.

If my guesses are correct, it would be good to just release a new package
version compiled against the current version of poppler in sid.

Regards,
Antoni Marcinek
