#32924: Add library dependencies to poppler + version bump
----------------------------------+-----------------------------------------
Reporter: macosx12345@… | Owner: macports-tickets@…
Type: enhancement | Status: new
Priority: Normal | Milestone:
Component: ports | Version: 2.0.3
Keywords: | Port: poppler
----------------------------------+-----------------------------------------
Poppler and libpoppler actually depend on several dependencies that were
not mentioned in the Portfile (can be checked e.g. with `otool -L
/opt/local/lib/libpoppler.19.dylib`). I attach a new version of the
Portfile that adds explicit dependencies to tiff, libpng, bzip2, zlib,
fontconfig, freetype, expat. This is probably not exhaustive, but,
hopefully, better than nothing.
Incidentally, the new Portfile updates to version 0.18.3 that was
released on January, 15th, 2012.
The use of such explicit dependencies can be to find which ports one has
to rebuild after an upgrade. For instance, after an upgrade of `tiff`,
`port dependents tiff` would show the extensive list of ports that depend
on tiff and that one should rebuild. Presently, poppler is not listed, so
that the user discovers that he/she should have rebuilt poppler only at
the time he/she fails to launch e.g. pdflatex.
Thank you for your consideration!
