--------------------------------------------+-------------------------------
 I just upgraded poppler from 0.6.4_0 to 0.8.0_0.  Now if I use GIMP and
 try to open a PDF the plug-in crash.  It brings up a dialog box that
 reads:

 Gimp Message

 Plug-in crashed: "poppler"

 (/opt/local/lib/gimp/2.0/plug-ins/poppler)

 The dying plug-in may have message up GIMPS's internal state.  You may
 want to save your images and restart GIMP to be on the safe side.

 GIMP Message
 Opening 'test.pdf' failed:

 Portable Document Format plug-in could not open image.

 If I deactivate poppler at 0.8.0_0, activate poppler at 0.6.4_0 and restart
 GIMP, I can again open a pdf just fine.  I don't have to rebuild anything.
 So it seems that the current poppler GIMP plug-in doesn't work with the
 new poppler.  So, I would guess that the plug-in needs a fix.
