[mapserver-users] Ubuntu libpdf support for Mapserver

[Roger André]

Hi everyone,

I'm just about done building a fresh copy of Mapserver 5.2 on my Ubuntu 8.04
machine and have one final snag to overcome - PDF support.  I've specified
"--with-pdf" in my compile options, but when I look carefully, I see "libpdf
not found or too old", and my resulting mapserv executable lacks PDF
support.  Problem is that there doesn't seem to be a "libpdf", or "pdflib"
package for Ubuntu, so I'm not really sure what to do.

There are a couple other *pdf*.so files in /usr:
/usr/lib/tracker/extract-modules/libextract-pdf.so
/usr/lib/openoffice/program/libpdffilter680li.so
/usr/lib/ImageMagick-6.3.7/modules-Q16/coders/pdf.so
/usr/lib/evince/backends/libpdfdocument.so

Could I use one of those instead?

Thanks,

Roger
