[poppler] cmake and static binaries

What I meant is that I am not sure if the default build should or should not include jbig. Either the autotools build is pulling in too much or the cmake build is missing a test. I think that jbig provides lossless compression. If it is not linked in, does that mean that poppler loses the functionality or that poppler uses another library or that poppler uses its own implementation?


Regards, William

You're the one that thinks static builds are a good idea, so you should know
if it's a problem or not :D

I'll commit that patch anyway it's not a big change and if it makes you happy
something is something.

Cheers,
