Summary: Review Request: texlive - Binaries for the TeX formatting system https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=242416 ------- Additional Comments From ji.cerny@xxxxxxxxx 2007-08-18 10:11 EST ------- Jindrich, is there some interest in building texlive against poppler instead of against the included xpdf. With some copying from debian (unstable) I have managed to do it. There are two ways how to do it. In any case one should modify poppler SRPM to install XPDF headers. This is easy, because poppler has a configure switch to do it. I made these headers to go in a new suppackage, that will be probably usefull only for building TeXlive but anyway. Building TeXlive is then essentially renaming GString to GooString. The only problem is pdftosrc that does not compile. If one decide not to include it in the installation (as debian does now, if I understand it well), the changes to poppler package are really minimal. To include also pdftosrc, one should patch the poppler a little bit more, essentially one should move the definition of class ObjectSteam from XRef.cc to XRef.h. I will attach the second version of patches, both for poppler and texlive, I can provide the first, of course. Hope that it helps. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the QA contact for the bug, or are watching the QA contact. _______________________________________________ Fedora-package-review mailing list Fedora-package-review@xxxxxxxxxx http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-package-review
