Hi,

I've already pushed the change to rawhide at night. The only problems
are LibreOffice and GDAL now. They don't build from source even without
the rebase of poppler.
I'm looking at the GDAL now and I see that Caolan has pushed new
LibreOffice to rawhide.

The point of announcing an impending soname bump is to give your downstreams time to adapt to it. Announcing it and doing it the same day is not helpful and forces your dependents to react immediately. Please provide at least a few days' response time before pushing soname bumps in the future.
