FWIW; I've filed bugs for packages still build-depending on xpdf-utils to switch to poppler-utils, so that we can remove xpdf for Squeeze.

Hi, in July 2009 you said that you intend to adopt xpdf. Are you still interested in that? Because currently it has several release-critical bugs, which should be addressed. So if your interest to maintain xpdf is still there, then you should work on this RC bugs or if not, then you should retitle the wnpp bug again.

Anyone who intends to adopt xpdf also needs to be prepared to help in the creation of updated packages for oldstable-security and stable- security. This isn't a package that should be adopted as a first package for NMs. Cheers, Moritz -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-wnpp-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?

Package: wnpp Severity: normal Hi, I'd like to give away the xpdf package to someone who can care for it. It's been a while since the last maintainer uploaded so it's a bit of a mess. The source package uses dpatch and should be migrated to a VCS really as we have a few ongoing differences from upstream.
