2006/10/27, Ondřej Surý <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>:
Frank Küster (one of affected Debian maintainers) will ask upstream of
pdftex and meanwhile he compiled list of functions used in xpdf code:
Ref
GfxFont
GBool
PDFDoc
GString
LinkDest
Stream
Hello,
I'm the maintainer of pdfTeX. :-)
The low-level-answer: We have these includes in two files
(pdftoepdf.cc and pdftosrc.cc):
#include <GString.h>
#include <gmem.h>
#include <gfile.h>
#include "Object.h"
#include "Stream.h"
#include "Array.h"
#include "Dict.h"
#include "XRef.h"
#include "Catalog.h"
#include "Link.h"
#include "Page.h"
#include "GfxFont.h"
#include "PDFDoc.h"
#include "GlobalParams.h"
#include "Error.h"
The high-level answer: pdfTeX uses xpdf to include pages from pdfs
into the pdfs it produces, so we need everything to be able to parse,
copy and manipulate the document, it's pages and their objects.
We are not concerned about rendering.
We also need the code to not only run on Linux, but Unix and Windows as well.
Best
Martin
