** Description changed:

  A newer version of fop was recently synced from Debian (bug 1511934).
  This failed to build with the following error message:
  
  The following packages have unmet dependencies:
   sbuild-build-depends-fop-dummy : Depends: libbatik-java (>= 1.8) but it is 
not going to be installed
                                    Depends: libfontbox-java but it is not 
installable
                                    Depends: libmockito-java but it is not 
installable
                                    Depends: libxmlgraphics-commons-java (>= 
2.0.1) but it is not going to be installed
  E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.
  
  This was a bit more than I had anticipated when I asked for it to be synced. 
To build the newer version, the various build dependencies will need to be 
sorted out. In corresponding order:
  1. batik needs a merge (and looks like it will also require a newer 
xmlgraphics-commons). See bug 1512087.
  2. libfontbox-java belongs to 
https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libpdfbox-java which is in Universe. I 
don't know whether this is optional or if it should be MIRed (and if that is 
the case, who makes the decision)
  3. Mockito is in Universe, and based on other packages usually skipped in 
order to prevent pulling Maven into Main. So most likely this package will 
regain an Ubuntu delta. Ah well :(
- 4. xmlgraphics-commons need a merge with a newer version. I have prepared a 
debdiff for this, see bug 1515358 for details.
+ 4. xmlgraphics-commons has been merged now, so a newer version is available. 
(See bug 1515358 for details.)
  
- So far I've prepared a debdiff for 4. I can look some more into 1, but
- would like some feedback especially regarding the version number.
+ Now that 4 has been resolved, batik (1) is probably the next logical
+ step. I would like some feedback on that especially regarding the
+ version number.
