Severity: wishlist
Hello poppler Debian package maintainers!
A new upstream version has just been released (0.54.0).
This new version includes (among other things) a patch that I
contributed to expose the PlayMode of a movie via the glib API.
See the upstream [bug], for more details.
[bug]: <https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=99625>
This new property will be useful for poppler-glib based PDF viewers
capable of playing back movies (such as pdfpc, that is to say,
PDF Presenter Console).
Having this new poppler upstream version packaged in Debian
would be highly useful: the Vala bindings could be updated, and
then pdf-presenter-console could take advantage of the new
API.
So, please, pretty please, package the new upstream version
as soon as possible.
I am aware that Debian stretch is fully frozen and that
poppler/0.54.0-x won't make it to enter stretch, but having
this new upstream version in unstable (or, at least, in
experimental) would be highly appreciated anyway!
Please let me know, thanks a lot for your time!
Bye.
