Subject: poppler: renamed libraries for the C++ transition but did not bump build-deps

Package: poppler
Version: 0.4.0-1
Severity: serious

Hello,

  when renaming libpoppler0-qt to libpoppler0c2-qt, the build-dependency
  on libqt3-mt-dev should have been bumped to (>= 3:3.3.4-4).

  Unlike normal applications, libraries are expected to specify in their
  Build-Depends the transitioned versions of other libraries they link
  against, in order to ensure they end up depending on the packages
  providing such libraries with the appropriate ABI version.

  Cheers,
