The last I heard of it, was that it was a 40 MiB tar.bz2 download! For a
PDF viewer! But is uses GTK2, so that's at least something.

But the latest (KDE 3.4 version) KPDF is quite beautiful, and works very
well. Here the middle button zooms in and out. It looks pretty cool,
actually. (They also has a nice info pop-up which I haven't seen before,
but presume will be part of other KDE 3.4 apps too.)
