I am one of these people who hates to give up on a problem. It was just shear pig headedness on my part that caused me to try cmake. I just refused to believe that the upstream maintainers would create a product that would not install both wrappers at the same time. I look forward to seeing the fix that you made with auto-tools. As of last checking the svn book I did not see the changes. There was no point in you and the other developers wasting time on it, if you were not certain that it would work. For what ever reason the configure script as it was in the original is broken. Also there was a warning about not being able to create the documentation with cmake, though that could well be solved by adding another module to cmake.

I found a solution to build both of them with autotools, not very elegant, but with not much increase in build time.

Meanwhile, I just found that "CMake build system" was introduced in 2008, so, I am wondering why devs in the book kept considering only autotools build. I've seen a comment about problems with glib-side developers of poppler regarding cmake, but these are old, from 2010. -- []s, Fernando -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/blfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page

Will be waiting to have some reply from other developers here, please. Meanwhile, you can build with qt5 if it is selected as in the qt5 page instructions and use the following sed, instead of the one in the book: sed -e "s:grep \"Qt 5\":grep \" 5.\":g" \ -i configure If I do not hear from other devs about this, will assume I am right and will modify the book accordingly, tomorrow. -- []s, Fernando -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/blfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page

[blfs-support] Building Poppler
Hello, I found that the configure for poppler to enable both qt4 and qt5 seems to be broken even with the sed fix applied as per the instructions. Out of shear frustration I deleted the extracted poppler directory and re-extracted a fresh copy. I created a build directory within it and typed: cmake prefix=/usr .. After it created the make files I checked and saw that it had detected both qt4 and qt5. I typed make and it went through the entire build without any errors and both qt4 and qt5 gets built. Would it be possible for one of the developers to check this out and provide instructions for using cmake instead of the broken configure? I have not installed it, just built it because I am not entirely sure how to specify the sysconfdir and disabling of static when using cmake. You get moc errors when using the sed when it comes to building the qt5 module.
