[tlbuild] Using external poppler

[vext01 at gmail.com]

Hi,

I am having problems using --with-system-xpdf with a recent snapshot.

configure: checking requested system `xpdf' library...
checking for free... no
checking goo/gtypes.h usability... no
checking goo/gtypes.h presence... no
checking for goo/gtypes.h... no
configure: error: some requested system libraries failed

Here is the relevent part of config.log:

configure:22342: checking goo/gtypes.h usability
configure:22359: cc -c -I/usr/local/include/poppler
-DPOPPLER_VERSION=\"0.10.6\"
 -I/usr/local/include/poppler  -I/usr/X11R6/include/freetype2
-I/usr/X11R6/inclu
de -I/usr/local/include/freetype1/freetype -I/usr/local/include
-I/usr/local/inc
lude/libpng   conftest.c >&5
<command line>:4:18: missing terminating " character
configure:22366: $? = 1

Which corresponds to this line of ./configure:
$as_echo "$as_me:$LINENO: \$? = $ac_status" >&5

I can't see anything obvious around this area of ./configure. Can anyone
else reproduce this? For now I will carry on with old-skool xpdf.
