Description:
Latest Poppler package breaks compilation of pdf-tools for spacemacs with the message ./configure -q --bindir=~/.emacs.d/elpa/28.1/develop/pdf-tools-20220426.2203/ && make clean && make -s configure: error: cannot find necessary poppler-private header (see README.org) according to the documentation, on ubuntu systems it seems necessary to install a package libpoppler-private-dev such a package does not exist for archlinux. With the previous poppler package the compilation worked. @maintainer: Did you change sth. from previous package to this newest one which results in omitting certain header files? or is this an upstream problem that has not yet made it to the pdf-tools of emacs/spacemacs? Additional info: * package version(s) poppler 22.05.0-1 pdf-tools 20220426.2203 (from melpa emacs package repository) * config and/or log files etc. * link to upstream bug report, if any Steps to reproduce: update via pacman -Syu and then update spacemacs results in the necessity to recompile the pdf-tools --> missing headers |
This task depends upon
in order to find out, if it was a breaking change from pdf-tools. I downgraded poppler, poppler-qt and poppler-glib to the previous version 22.03.
Now the compilation of the pdf-tools for emacs works without problem again.
The weird thing is that "pacman -Ql poppler" in order to list the installed package files shows no difference between version 22.03 and 22.05. (??)
I would have expected missing header files for version 22.05.
Bye,
