1 | The bugs are stacking up[1] and upstream only offers a paid version of |
2 | pdflib-8[2]. It is my understanding that there is no way for us to |
3 | package future versions and the bundled libs are vulnerable[3]. |

5 | So, should it be removed? For more info, see the tracker bug for its |
6 | removal[1], there are a number of rdeps that will require fixing[4]. |
