[Python-modules-team] Bug#741046: python-pdfminer: Please package latest upstream

[Gianfranco Costamagna]

Hi you both.




>[¹] https://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/python-modules/packages/pdfminer.git



I did a build and install, but I had to use --auto-deconfigure to make it configure properly.

debomatic-amd64 ran piupart successfully, so the problem should have been that dpkg wasn't smart enough to understand it
http://debomatic-amd64.debian.net/distribution#unstable/pdfminer/20140328+dfsg-1/piuparts

I installed apt from experimental, installed pdfminer from testing and ran

"sudo apt install pdfminer-data_20140328+dfsg-1_all.deb python-pdfminer_20140328+dfsg-1_all.deb"

successfully.

The package has been sponsored on unstable, thanks for letting me contribute there!

cheers,

G.
