--- Begin Message ---Package: psutils Version: 1.17.dfsg-4 Severity: important Dear Maintainer, I have some scripts to manipulate heterogeneous PDF files, rotating and fitting them to a fixed size. The scripts are something like this: pdftops -f 1 -l 1 -eps document.pdf document.eps epsffit -m -c 7 4 575 825 document.eps document-fit.eps The commands work fine in Debian 6, but they fail in Debian 12 with the following error: epsffit: no %%BoundingBox: The problem turned out to be into the header created by the pdftops command: %!PS-Adobe-3.0 EPSF-3.0 %Produced by poppler pdftops version: 22.12.0 (http://poppler.freedesktop.org) %%LanguageLevel: 2 %%DocumentSuppliedResources: (atend) %%BoundingBox: 0 0 2384 1684 ... The second line "%Produced by poppler..." confuses the epsffit command, which is unable to find the %%BoundingBox line. If I manually edit the document.eps removing the "%Produced by" line, then epsffit works as expected. Another workaround is to add another percent sign to the line (like "%%Produced by..."). I'm not sure if the comment "%Produced by" is compliant to the EPS format. If it is not, we shuld blame the pdftops(1) command, provided by the poppler-utils package. -- System Information: Debian Release: 12.2 APT prefers stable-updates APT policy: (500, 'stable-updates'), (500, 'stable-security'), (500, 'stable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 Kernel: Linux 6.1.0-13-amd64 (SMP w/2 CPU threads; PREEMPT) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE not set Shell: /bin/sh linked to /usr/bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) LSM: AppArmor: enabled Versions of packages psutils depends on: ii libc6 2.36-9+deb12u3 ii libpaper1 1.1.29 Versions of packages psutils recommends: ii ghostscript 10.0.0~dfsg-11+deb12u2 psutils suggests no packages. -- no debconf information

Cloned a 2nd time in error. This was going to be a request for autopkgtests in psutils.
