Description: gdalinfo (and other GDAL) tools claim to support GeoPDF, but they do not (libgdal is not linked with podofo or poppler, PKGBUILD configure does not force GeoPDF), but:

$ gdalinfo --formats | grep PDF
PDF (rws): Geospatial PDF
$ ### Yummy, we claim to support GeoPDF
$ ### alas:
$ gdalinfo /tmp/TN_Chattanooga_20130419_TM_geo.pdf
ERROR 4: `/tmp/TN_Chattanooga_20130419_TM_geo.pdf' not recognised as a supported file format.

This works with the AUR gdal-curl package; I'd prefer to use the mainline package.


Additional info:
* 1.10-*
* Samples available from http://www.agc.army.mil/Missions/Terrain/GeoPDFMaps/GeoPDFGallery.aspx

Steps to reproduce:
As above.
