Subject: new evince cannot display Japanese characters correctly

Date: Mon, 19 Nov 2007 02:25:29 +0900

[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]

Package: evince
Version: 2.20.1-2
Severity: normal
Tags: l10n

Hi,

 New evince package displays Japanese characters wrong. Broken.
 Please see attached image file, one is opened CP-06.pdf with evince 
 (Screenshot-CP-06.pdf.png), and another is with Adobe Reader (shows 
 fine). I heard same problem from other people on IRC.
 
 Privious version - evince 0.8.3-1 doesn't have such problem. It works.

  Description     : Encoding data for the poppler PDF rendering library

This package contains the encoding data needed to view some PDF
documents with libpoppler.

However I don't think there is anything copyrightable in these files;
they only contain series of numbers that describe the mappings. Do you
people think it could be suitable for main?
(Please follow-up on -legal only for licensing discussions.)

Ondrej, are you willing - if the legal problems are settled out - to
package it? Otherwise I guess me or any of the co-maintainers could do
it, the packaging is absolutely trivial.

The new poppler version needs some specific files that contain some
mappings between Unicode and other encodings, which are in a separate
package.
