cups-filters supports PDF printing. To be able to render PDF (convert it to raster formats and/or display it on the screen) Ghostscript or Poppler (libpoppler library) is needed.

Your .bb file lists both Ghostscript and Poppler as a dependency. Does this cover also libpoppler? Is your package built with appropriate C header files installed (see also the build log of you packaging to see whether ./configure finds everything)? Are all files of Ghostscript (fonts, scripts, other resources, ...) installed?

Hi,

I had the exact same issue while building with yocto (zeus). The error I was getting was same as mentioned in issue #449.

Turns out that qpdf 8.4.0 does not work even from command line. Once I switched qpdf to latest 10.6.2 everything started working.
