Bug#399439: Perhaps it's time to close

[Loïc Minier]

        Hi,

 I'm sorry, but I don't understand what your rant is all about: the
 upstream bug says the upstream developers aren't interested in working
 on a Mozilla plugin because they find evince withing mozplugger a
 suitable solution; the Debian bug report is tagged "upstream" and
 "wontfix", which means it's an upstream issue (not Debian specific) and
 that it's not going to be fixed, I don't think this can be any clearer.
 Beside, you mention a patch but there's no patch attached to this bug
 and I doubt the original patch would still work with current evince.

 I think Debian GNOME folks are quite busy and try not to diverge too
 much from upstream, but it doesn't mean we can't consider some not too
 intrusive features from time to time to demonstrate their utility.  If
 you feel like you can produce a not too intrusive proof of concept
 up-to-date patch, perhaps we'll include it.  If you think the evince
 developers are wrong and this is not the way to maintain a PDF reader,
 then you're free to fork it and prove the world you were right.  We're
 all for constructive innovations.

    Bye,
