The binary packaged xpdf still segfaults/crashes on every pdf file. I successfully compiled a working xpdf on natty.
Here are the required dependencies aside from the regular automake etc packages (these were the maverick build-deps): libfreetype6-dev libpaper-dev libt1-dev libx11-dev libxext-dev libxp-dev libxpm-dev libxt-dev x11proto-core-dev I made sure that libpoppler-dev was not installed. ./configure can't find libfreetype. One has to: cd /usr/include/ ; sudo ln -s freetype2/freetype And then just getting the original source (apt-get source xpdf), and tar-gunzipping the original source, configuring, making and installing works fine. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/669211 Title: Xpdf segfaults on start in libpoppler.so.7 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
