Regarding an old version of qpdf, please see https://launchpad.net/~qpdf/+archive/ubuntu/qpdf, my personal PPA for qpdf. (I'm the qpdf author and debian maintainer, and this uses the official debian packages.) For technical reasons, the latest few releases haven't been backported to Ubuntu 20.04, but it is my hope to get one more new version in before 20.04 stops accepting updates.
Regarding the issue you are reporting, I would need a lot more to go on than what you've provided. I don't know what you mean by "meta title". When qpdf merges files, it does not look at the contents of strings in the file, and nothing anywhere in qpdf ever calls it "QPdf", which suggests to me that you may be using some other tool that is calling qpdf, and perhaps that tool is generating an invalid command. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to qpdf in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/2100026 Title: Request to fix QPDF issue with removing meta information Status in qpdf package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: Ubuntu Release: Ubuntu 20.04.6 LTS Package Version: qpdf: Installed: 9.1.1-1ubuntu0.1 Candidate: 9.1.1-1ubuntu0.1 Version table: *** 9.1.1-1ubuntu0.1 500 500 http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu focal-updates/universe amd64 Packages 500 http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu focal-security/universe amd64 Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status 9.1.1-1build1 500 500 http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu focal/universe amd64 Packages What you expected to happen: I expect to allow merging multiple files if there are double quotes in their meta title from any files. What happened instead: Currently, I'm getting an error "Error occurred while executing QPdf command" while merging multiple files whether one file exists with double quotes in the meta title. Can you please look into this?
