Package: python-poppler
Version: 0.12.1-2
Severity: wishlist

Hi,

python-poppler will fail to build with Poppler > 0.15.
The reason is the changed poppler_page_get_text() in the poppler-glib
frontend to only accept one parameter, adding a new function for what
poppler_page_get_text() did previously; see also the poppler commit[1].
There is a patch available in an upstream bug report[2], with notes.

As we are planning a Poppler 0.16 transition soon, could you please upload
to experimental a version which can compile with Poppler 0.16.x (which you
can find currently in experimental)? Unfortunately, the fix is _not_
compatible with the current poppler 0.12.x, you cannot upload to unstable
right now.
