pdfpres broken due to API change in poppler-glib 0.17 #18

Closed vain closed 13 years ago

The GDK API was removed from poppler-glib in release 0.17:

http://poppler.freedesktop.org/releases.html

(poppler-glib was updated in Arch Linux from 0.16.7 to 0.18 only a few days ago, other distros still ship 0.16.7.)

I guess it will take me some time to fix this because I'm rather busy at the moment. Patches are most welcome.

In commit d4b4ca7, I added a temporary workaround if your poppler version is newer than 0.16. Essentially, I copied the old poppler code into pdfpres.

I'm still looking for a better solution, but I'm afraid I'll have to rewrite large parts of the program. We'll see. Maybe that's a good time to port it to Gtk3 (which, of course, is even more work).
