 Hi,

 Wonderful, that works ! Thanks for the help.
 First of all, okular is an excellent pdf viewer, light and highly
 configurable. One can change the background of the pages, so useful for
 scientists that are reading lots of arxiv documents and typing pdf files.
 Skim lost this function and Adobe reader is full of bugs and slow.

 So let's sum up the installation for the dummies like me that need to
 install okular :
 - install kile port, this will install okular
 - install ports poppler +qt4 +quartz and poppler-qt4-mac .
 - create a local port (say okular2) using instructions (till step 5) from
 https://guide.macports.org/chunked/development.local-repositories.html
 Note that ${prefix} is typically replaced by /opt/local , use kde for
 category
 - copy in the local port, files coming from
 /opt/local/var/macports/sources/rsync.macports.org/macports/release/tarballs/ports/kde/okular
 (Portfile and the 'files' directory)
 Edit Portfile in the local port adding the 2 lines+ removing one line from
 https://trac.macports.org/attachment/ticket/60059/diff-Portfile.diff
 - uninstall the official okular (force yes), clean, build and install the
 new port okular2
 - Do launchctl load -w /Library/LaunchAgents/org.freedesktop.dbus-
 session.plist
 - Do launchctl load -w /Library/LaunchAgents/org.macports.kdecache.plist
