This means I can read those at least, but not able to answer those. I'm not sure that the 'we need this in Kali' justifies the severity, but sure needs to be solved. The breaks/replaces was added by Jonathan Wiltshire[1]. Please note that python-pypdf is noted unmaintained[2]: -- cut -- This page is no longer updated. I've stopped maintaining pyPdf [...] -- cut -- The fork it refers to as continued development is disappeared. As such, python-pypdf is not touched for more than six years[3] and it's Python 2 only which may be deprecated somewhen soon. As I know, Ubuntu doesn't ship it anymore for example. In the contrary, PyPDF2 has Python 3 support, constantly updated and supported[4]. I think it would be better to update your software for PyPDF2 support. > If the package had been part of the python-modules team, I would have > fixed it by myself but for some reason you are the sole maintainer. > If you need an NMU to help you, let me know. I'm going to upload a new package revision soon.
