[ITP] poppler (attn: xpdf maintainer)


Another TeX Live dependency:

ftp://ftp.cygwinports.org/pub/cygwinports/uploads/poppler/
ftp://ftp.cygwinports.org/pub/cygwinports/release-2/poppler-data/

Dr. Volker Zell,

The command-line utilities in poppler conflict with those in xpdf.  As
poppler has more features and is better maintained, I propose to follow
Fedora's lead and ship them in poppler instead of xpdf.

All I need you to do is, while you're updating to xpdf-3.03, add this
line to your .cygport after cyginstall:

rm -fr ${D}/usr/{bin,share/man/man1}/pdf*

Thanks,


Yaakov
