[Bug 1256627] Re: New upstream release, merge with Debian

[Sebastien Bacher]

well, it's maybe not "weird", but it is suboptimal to change a soname in
a stable upstream serie (e.g we couldn't easily SRU that).

That soname change requires us to do a transition and rebuild everything
using libpoppler43 in trusty ... which includes libreoffice ... or the
the current 4.1 version doesn't build on the trusty toolchain and 4.2 is
not ready yet to be uploaded. It feels like we should delay a bit this
transition until libreoffice is ready to build in trusty.

What do you think?

Title:
  New upstream release, merge with Debian

Status in “poppler” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  poppler (0.24.4-0ubuntu1) trusty; urgency=low

    * Merge with Debian experimental (LP: #1256627), remaining changes:
      - Drop libopenjpeg-dev build depends, it's in universe.
      - Lower poppler-data to Suggests, it is too big for CD images,
        handled by language-selector.
      - Have libpoppler-dev Depend on libpoppler-private-dev, to help with
        the transition after the split of the two packages.
      - Build Qt 5 packages.
      - Add simple compile/link/run autopkgtest.
      - Differences in symbols file.
    * New upstream bugfix release.
    * Add libpoppler-glib-doc Breaks/Replaces on libpoppler-glib-dev
      (<= 0.24.4).
    * Update debian/copyright (taken from unreleased Debian Git).
