Package: pdftk
Version: 1.41+dfsg-9
Severity: normal

Attached are two PDF files.  output.pdf has some XMP metadata that is
compressed.  Running "pdftk output.pdf output uncomp.pdf uncompress"
produces uncomp.pdf.  However, uncomp.pdf has corrupt XMP metadata.
This is because it inserts an xmp:ModifyDate element into the metadata,
but does not ensure that there is a namespace declaration for the xmp
prefix.  Consequently, the XML is ill-formed.

Ideally, pdftk would not modify the XMP metadata at all, but if it must,
it should ensure that the XMP metadata it outputs is always well-formed
XML.
