Source: poppler
Version: 24.02.0-5
Severity: serious
X-Debbugs-Cc: sramac...@debian.org
poppler (24.02.0-5) unstable; urgency=medium
.
* Team upload
* Stop building Qt6 library on i386
vs
dak rm -Rn -b libpoppler-qt6-3t64 libpoppler-qt6-dev -a i386
W: -a/--architecture implies -p/--partial.
Will remove the following packages from unstable:
libpoppler-qt6-3t64 | 24.02.0-4 | i386
libpoppler-qt6-dev | 24.02.0-4 | i386
Maintainer: Debian freedesktop.org maintainers

------------------- Reason -------------------
----------------------------------------------
Checking reverse dependencies...
# Broken Build-Depends:
photoqt: libpoppler-qt6-dev
qpdfview: libpoppler-qt6-dev
texworks: libpoppler-qt6-dev
This needs coordination with reverse dependencies.
The decision is also somewhat inconsistent. Why is support only dropped
on i386 and not the other 32 bit architectures?
Cheers

This was coordinated with reverse dependencies. Those apps are already
intentionally not available on i386 in Unstable and Testing.
https://bugs.debian.org/1068672 (at that time, there was only one
reverse dependency)

It is allowed to drop i386 support for Trixie since it is planned for
i386 to no longer be a directly installable architecture. One major
point of keeping i386 binaries around is to run legacy apps but there
aren't legacy Qt6 poppler apps. Legacy apps would use older versions
of Qt.
That was also the position of Ubuntu which is unwilling to build Qt6
for i386. Dropping i386 from Debian allows Debian and Ubuntu to more
easily share packaging.
I'll file the last removal bug for libpoppler-qt6-3t64 and
libpoppler-qt6-dev on i386 now. Thank you for pointing out that I
missed that step.
I'll close this bug since I believe the poppler packaging is ok. If
followup is needed, I guess you can use the removal bug that I'll CC
you on.
