  [ Jonas Smedegaard ]
  * Update copyright file:
    + Fix merge some Files entries.
    + Tidy copyright holders to match new upstream release.
    + List upstream develpment mailinglist as preferred upstream
      contact.
  * Update repackaging:
    + Strip icclib.
      Drop corresponding entries in copyright file.
      Drop patch for CVE-2012-4405.
    + Stop strip CMap file Identity-UTF16-H: Explicitly declared in
      LICENSE (with a double negative) as GPL-3+~Artifex licensed.
    + Stop strip CMap files: not shipped since 9.06.
  * Drop patches 0* now included upstream and 1* adopted upstream.
  * Unfuzz all patches, and update patch 2003.
  * Update package relations:
    + Build-depend on recent libopenjpeg-dev (not libjasper-dev):
      JasPer support deprecated (will be dropped in 9.07).
    + Build-depend on libregexp-assemble-perl, libfont-ttf-perl and
      libimage-exiftool-perl: Needed for extracting metadata from ICC,
      PDF, and fonts.
    + Stop build-depending on liblcms1-dev: icc34.h now included
      upstream (outside of the convenience code copy of lcms1 project).
      Closes: Bug#745529. Thanks to Moritz Muehlenhoff.
    + Stop build-depending on libdbus-1-dev: CUPS filters no longer
      built.
    + Stop suggesting hpijs: Correct would be for said package (or
      rather its successor printer-driver-hpijs - or any add-on driver)
      to declare "Enhances: ghostscript" instead.
  * Disable broken omni driver.
  * Use canonical hostname (anonscm.debian.org) in Vcs-Git URI.
  * Add patch 1001 to document inkcov device.
  * Extract metadata from ICC, PDF, and truetype files before copyright
    check.
  * Stop building CUPS filters, and drop binary package
    ghostscript-cups: Ghostscript-based CUPS filters obsolete (will be
    dropped upstream in 9.09).
    Closes: bug#735612. Thanks to Adrian Bunk and Didier 'OdyX' Raboud.
  * Avoid building CUPS driver or checking symbols file when
    bootstrapping an architecture.
    Closes: bug#717827. Thanks to Matthias Klose and Daniel Schepler.
  * Update Vcs-* fields: Packaging git moved to printing area of Alioth.
  * Stop explicitly xz-compressing binary packages: Done by default now.
  * Fix avoid hardcoded (and broken, by now) ABI in fallback font path.
  * Document in README.Debian linkage against unpatched OpenJPEG (i.e.
    lacking JPEG2000 color calibration) in README.Debian.
  * Move ICC profiles to shared dir, to allow reuse by others.
  * Bump standards-version to 3.9.5.
  * Update symbols file (79 new, 29 dropped).
  * Add patch cherry-picked upstream, to avoid icclib.
    Closes: Bug#531624. Thanks to Moritz Muehlenhoff.

  [ Didier Raboud ]
  * Add libjasper-dev as Build-Depend, let the two symbols back in
  * Ack NMU, thanks!
