The pdf2swf command is not supported because it relies on xpdf library code, which has a history of security issues.
The Debian upstream package had entirely removed the swftools package for a while, until it was repackaged to not include pdf2swf, which is what we see now in Ubuntu. Most likely it will remain this way unless/until the swftools folks rewrite their software to use a different PDF library. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1086220 Title: pdf2swf missing from swftools 0.9.2 for ubuntu 12.10 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/swftools/+bug/1086220/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
