Hi. I wanted to ask with supreme humbleness if anyone could be so kind as to patch MAT so as to obviate the need for this security fix: https://www.debian.org/security/2016/dsa-3708

To address the security bug, Debian has disabled PDF support in MAT entirely.

I heavily used MAT for cleaning PDFs. And I miss using this feature terribly. I am holding out hope that one of you supremely awesome developers could produce a patch in time so that a fully functioning MAT can be included in the Debian Stretch 2017 release.

Thank you kindly.
