Hi Peter, I have a compile fix for that error and some others you'll also find in your journey/odissey to compile PDFedit :-), I'm pasting below the compile instructions I've written that work for me in Fedora 32 (but should be trivial to adapt to any modern distribution):
** Instructions for compiling and installing PDFedit from git (tested on Fedora 32) ** sudo dnf install qt3-devel boost-devel gcc-c++ t1lib t1utils t1lib-devel freetype freetype-devel kernel-headers #qt3 old releases are at http://download.qt.io/archive/qt/ git clone https://git.code.sf.net/p/pdfedit/git pdfedit-git cd pdfedit-git git checkout master # switch to master branch git checkout -b pdfedit_compile_fixes # create a new branch to apply our compile fixes there curl https://gitlab.gnome.org/nbenitez/evince/uploads/ee6541ce5a2bb9c0eb1e98e3aa629c41/0001-Fedora-32-compile-fixes.patch --output 0001-Fedora-32-compile-fixes.patch # following compile-fixes patch comes from Fedora rpm package and I added on top some other compile fixes (like the specific one you mentioned) git am 0001-Fedora-32-compile-fixes.patch autoconf # to create 'configure' since we're building from git (in contrast from a release tarball) QTDIR=/usr/lib64/qt-3.3 ./configure make clean QTDIR=/usr/lib64/qt-3.3 make QTDIR=/usr/lib64/qt-3.3 sudo make install You may want to add a --prefix parameter to 'configure' command to change where it ends up installed, mine defaulted to ~/.local/, so when I run 'which pdfedit' it shows '~/.local/bin/pdfedit'. Also I'm trying to create a Flatpak for PDFedit, based on the Freedesktop runtime. My end goal is to publish it to https://flathub.org/ so it'll be easier for anyone to run PDFedit on any modern distribution. Regards,
