Yes, pdf_parser is deprecated, but unfortunately still there to cause problems in the 3.1.x code. It's gone from the 3.2 betas. Defining an external_parsers entry for application/pdf will override anything selected by pdf_parser, though (and not the other way around). The fact that Theo is getting "PDF::parse" errors indicates very clearly that htdig is not recognizing any such external_parsers entry for application/pdf. See http://www.htdig.org/FAQ.html#q5.31 in attition to the FAQ entries Gabriele and Geoff recommended. -- Gilles R.
