tl;dr: scroll down, apply the patch, run a bulk build, send ok's
Hi,
i tried hard to get texlive (especially that pdftex thing) work
with newer poppler versions, but without any progress. I've patches
that let print/gexlive/base build with newer poppler, but pdftex
fails and breaks at least math/R and math/octave (which indirectly
use pdftex for rendering their documentation). I don't have enough
spare time to debug pdftex, and, to be honest, I don't *want* debug
pdftex.
So, here's a proposal to build print/texlive/base with the (outdated)
poppler bundled in the distfile. Maybe it's outdated, but at the
moment the only port stopping me from updating poppler is
print/texlive/base.
I hope that this diff, making it possible to update print/poppler,
will make it easier to look what's wrong with pdftex, and I'll also
send a send a separate mail with the above mentioned patches for
building print/texlive/base with a newer poppler).
I also think that things got out of control upstream (which isn't
upstream but midstream, including dozens if not hundreds of programs
in this texlive "distribution"). IIRC, Years ago, Edd asked them
to *not* bundle xpdf but use poppler, yet they still bundle xpdf
but their autoconf macros written for detecting xpdf now detect
poppler include files.
texlive will suffer a little bit, because you should not pass
untrusted input to pdftex, but all other ports will benefit from
an overdue poppler update.
ok?
Ciao,
Kili
