Ha! Today I removed the gtk .zip files and I could not compile poppler anymore.
This is because poppler says "glib support" actually meaning "gtk+".

In effect his means quiet many circular dependencies. This may be new because
gtk needs poppler so it could be a new circular dependency.

Now I understand we can compile poppler/* by itself, but it's kind of weird. It
could be worth considering better tests in the configure script to know whether
we can create all of these modules... (like with a command like: 'pkg-config
--cflags gtk-2.0 > 2.6').

It may be difficult for you to test such an environment? If so I can certainly
help in improving the configure script so it doesn't generate glib, splash,
cairo, etc. unless you have these libraries.
