poppler < 0.14.4 has a vulnerability[1] and it needs to be moved as soon 
as possible. The only package from todo is koffice-filters.

koffice-filters is a bit special. koffice is already rebuilt in testing 
against python2 2.7.

to move it fast, i propose to rebuild koffice-filter extra against 
staging bumping pkgrel to 1.1 (testing repo disable) and push it in staging.

after poppler is moved in extra, rebuild the testing against extra.

Ronald, what do you think?
