Description Ranjan Maitra 2012-06-08 14:07:27 UTC
Description of problem:

poppler is available at 0.20.0 but Fedora's languishes behind at 0.18.4.

updated poppler available from http://poppler.freedesktop.org/poppler-0.20.0.tar.gz

Comment 1 Rex Dieter 2012-06-08 14:11:55 UTC
Fedora's builds have backported fixes (fyi), and I believe the decision was made not to rebase f17 to 0.20 because it introduced ABI changes too late in the fedora development cycle.

Comment 2 Rex Dieter 2012-06-08 14:14:22 UTC
and as a testment to that, we've already introduced poppler-0.20 into rawhide (to be come f18), and the build breakages have yet to still be fully resolved.
