Package: okular
Version: 4:4.14.1-1
Severity: important

Dear Maintainer,

after upgrading okular to 4:4.14.1-1 from testing, opening djvu-files fails
with the message "could not open /path/to/file.djvu"

This happens when giving the file to open on the command line as well as when
the file --> open dialog is called from the menu.

In the past older testing versions have worked fine in this regard. After
downgrading okular to stable 4:4.8.4-3 wheezy the program opens the same files
without errors.

Your system installation is a total mess.

Some of those versions are from testing, some from some older testing,
some from stable...
Please decide what you want: stable, testing, or unstable. Such a wrong
(and outdated) mix is simply dangerous, as it is not tested (and it
does not make much sense to do so).

It seems, I did not.

Upgrading this as well fixed the issue.

Sorry for bothering you. And thanks for you work anyway!
