            Bug ID: 447071
           Summary: Ship Okular packages compiled against newer versions
                    of Poppler that support signing documents
           Product: neon
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Neon Packages
                OS: Linux
            Status: REPORTED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: Packages User Edition
          Assignee: [email protected]

                CC: [email protected], [email protected], [email protected]
  Target Milestone: ---

As reported elsewhere [1], neon always ships the newest version of Okular, that
already support digitally signing PDF documents. 

As Okular shipped by neon is built against old version of Poppler (currently
0.86.1) , the option is not available (Tools>Digitally sign is greyed out).

Current workaround is to use packages from flathub, which comes with other
problems specific to the flathub (slower startup times, filesystem access). 
Having two installations of the same application, also means that one needs to
remember which option in Open with menu to select before opening a document for
signing, which breaks user experience.
