Dear Sir/Madam,
As Cairo and Poppler (and Poppler-utils) have been updated regularly
the last couple of months the available FreeBSD ports have become
kind of outdated. The current port versions are 1.10.2 for Cairo and
0.18.4 for Poppler (and Poppler-utils), while the current versions
are 1.12.6 and 0.20.5 respectively.
Both applications have been improved tremendously with these updates,
so for most users these most recent versions are quite essential.
Would you please be so kind therefore to port these latest versions
and make them available to FreeBSD? Thanks in advance!
With best regards,

Hi!
Currently we are in a freeze pending the release of FreeBSD 9.1. Both
poppler and cario are dependencies on a lot of ports, and therefore it
is not a good idea to update them right before a release, in case
something breaks.
Regards!
Poppler update will happen after the 9.1-R is out. Cairo is much harder
since the new version exposes serious bugs in some xorg drivers that are
very hard to fix.
