        Hi,
being it real security change, there would also follow real security
release of PoDoFo, thus everyone can benefit, not only "selected"
distributions.

Maybe nobody else than Debian folks care? I'm plain guessing here.

I already said my reasoning, PoDoFo project works differently in this
aspect. I'm not a decision maker here, neither your change seems to
cause any harm, still the change seems useless to me due to the way
PoDoFo project releases are done. That doesn't mean I'd object if
anyone else will commit your change. And you can always propose the
change to the Debian bug you referenced, thus they can verify its
correctness.
