This fixes a bug in the previous stable version reported in bug 615208.

Sorry, I don't mean to be pushy,
but is there any update on this?

I see the deadline is set to 2017-06-06, which is almost 3 weeks ago.

I personally use the testing branch of Gentoo, so am not affected
but I'd be highly surprised if others were not hitting the bug mentioned in
https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=615208
on a regular basis.

There are scripts contained in www-misc/awstats that depend on HTMLDoc to produce PDFs.
Specifically, the awstats_buildstaticpages.pl perl script.

The test case I produced in the above bug report is a cut-down version of a real-world scenario, using the Awstats logo.
As such, I would have thought that many people on Gentoo stable branch, using Awstats would encounter this bug.

I think it would be highly beneficial to get HTMLDoc 1.8.30 into the stable branch of Gentoo.

If I have misunderstood the process here, then please disregard.

Nope, not being pushy, thanks for the reminder. I've been busy so I haven't been checking on my old open bugs as often. I've CCed the arches.
