Re: Building the PDF Import extension
Hi Andrea, in my case it doesn't work. I'm using Win 8 64 bit and when I installed the extension I got this message: loading component libraray failed: (follows the address where the file pdfimport.uno.dll was supposed to be found) ... AppData/Roaming/Openoffice/4/user/uno_packages/cache/uno_packages/sv62pr81.tmp_/oracle-pdfimport-1/pdfimport.uno.dll sounds like an unusual link. And thus, I cannot import pdf files on AOO 4 at this time. I've been using RC1.

Do people who use other operating systems have problems? I also tried building PDF Import by configuring (release tag) with ./configure --enable-category-b ... --enable-pdfimport --with-system-poppler and this produces main/solver/400/.../bin/pdfimport/pdfimport.oxt which works (probably on my system only). Then I tried with only (i.e., no system poppler) ./configure --enable-category-b ... --enable-pdfimport but this didn't produce anything. Do we have some inconsistencies in the configure options? And what is the right way to build pdfimport in a portable way? Honestly I believe that, even if due to license constraints this cannot be formally released by the project, it will be easier that someone individually releases an updated version on the Extensions site rather than explaining all of the above to random users...
