Description Patrice Dumas 2008-01-12 13:19:42 UTC
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.

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 :)

Comment 2 Patrice Dumas 2008-01-14 11:52:40 UTC
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.
