Dear Maintainer,

poppler 26.07 is currently in experimental. Once it migrates to unstable,
inkscape 1.4.3-1 will fail to build from source as the PDF import extension
(src/extension/internal/pdfinput/) does not compile against it

poppler 26.02-26.07 reshaped much of the internal C++ API it uses.
GfxColor*/PDFRectangle* parameters became const references,
Object::getString() returns const std::string&, Gfx8BitFont::getEncoding()
returns a std::array, GfxFont::getWMode() returns a scoped enum, and
GfxState::setPath(), Object::streamGetDict()/arrayGetNF()/dictGetKey()/
dictGetValNF() and the Object(Dict*) constructor were removed, while
Catalog::indexToLabel() now takes a std::string*

All of these have already been fixed upstream. You may prefer to package a
newer upstream release (1.4.4+, which contains them natively) rather than
carry a patch. If a backport is more convenient, the attached patch combines
the relevant upstream merge requests -- !7780, !7839, !7919, !7968, !8034 and
!8037 -- rebased onto 1.4.3. Every change is guarded on POPPLER_CHECK_VERSION,
so it is a no-op with the poppler currently in unstable and can be applied now,
ahead of the transition

Thanks,
Nadzeya
