So comments: * Is there any possibility of me convincing you to also add that switches to the CMake build system? If not i or someone else will have to do delaying the commiting of the patch * The license on mac-framework.m4 seems a bit weird to me, but i think we can live with it * You can not include config.h in GlobalParams.h, use the poppler-config.h trick Overall it looks okaish from the "i don't use Mac so i don't care much" POV Albert _______________________________________________ poppler mailing list [email protected] http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/poppler
