Description of problem: poppler brings in a log of dependencies through libpoppler-glib.so. I think that it would be better to split the poppler package in two with a new subpackage containing /usr/lib/libpoppler-glib.so.2 /usr/lib/libpoppler-glib.so.2.0.0 for example called poppler-glib. texlive uses libpoppler.so but not libpoppler-glib and doesn't need glib dependencies. I can do a patch if you agree. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Steps to Reproduce: 1. 2. 3. Actual results: Expected results: Additional info:
Patrice, patch is always appreciated and always quicker to be applied. Feel free to attach it and I'll review/test it as well. Adding also Mattihias to Cc, he migtht be also interested :)
I only do patches when the maintainer has agreed in principle (except for obvious fixes). I dislike doing unneeded work and I have bad experiences from the past.
