http://codesearch.debian.net/results/getAlternateName/page_0 suggests that this version of events is accurate: we're not trying to prevent partial upgrades of the form new evince, old libpoppler-glib8, old libpoppler46 because evince doesn't call getAlternateName anyway. Rather, we're trying to prevent partial upgrades of the form new libpoppler-glib8, old libpoppler46 for which Neil's test results look fine. > (I don't know why people were doing those partial upgrades in the first > place.)
