The change from 3.0.0-2 is a small bug fix that enables proper parsing of certain PDF files that have scalars not followed by whitespace at the ends of object streams. It also corrects an omission from the 3.0.0 release notes. The bug fixed in this release has been present in all versions of qpdf. It is not related to the new work in 3.0.0, nor is it required for the new functionality of qpdf that is used by the open printing project. However, it is extremely rare that someone reports a bug in qpdf that causes it to fail to process a valid file (this is only the second one reported since April, 2008 when qpdf had its first public release), so it would be beneficial to have this fix in 12.10 in case anyone tries to use the pdf filter on a file that has this property. Such files are probably very rare or else this bug wouldn't have been hiding in qpdf for so many years.
