[Python-apps-team] Bug#879034: pdfshuffler: port to gir1.2-poppler-0.18

[Emilio Pozuelo Monfort]

Package: pdfshuffler
Version: 0.6.0-8
Severity: important

Hi,

pdfshuffler is using the old poppler python bindings. The new ones are
the gobject introspection poppler bindings, i.e. gir1.2-poppler-0.18.
It'd be good to get pdfshuffler ported to them.

In fact, there is a port at https://github.com/jeromerobert/pdfshuffler,
using new poppler and gtk bindings, and python3. It'd be nice to get
an updated package.

Thanks,
Emilio
