I have tried to backport the patches of bug 680628. The patch on Poppler
applies and so the backport would most probably work, but the patch on
Cairo does not work. The part where the patch has to be applied seems to
be completely rearchitectured and and also a backport of the whole Cairo
package from Natty was not possible as the Natty package needs a lot of
newer libraries and so the backport attempt could lead to major parts of
Lucid being replaced by Natty ...
If I try to build the Cairo package of Natty on Lucid I get:
dpkg-checkbuilddeps: Unmet build dependencies: dh-autoreconf libxrender-
dev (>= 1:0.9.5-2) libx11-dev (>= 2:1.3.3-2) libpixman-1-dev (>= 0.18.4)
dh-autoreconf is a new concept introduced after Lucid, the other
versioned dependencies are most probably new libraries with new APIs.
As the real fix would be to somehow introduce the Cairo and Poppler
fixes of bug 680628 into Lucid, I move this bug to Cairo and Poppler.
Perhaps someone more expert in Cairo can solve the problem.
