[poppler] Fontconfig issue whilst building Poppler 0.62.0

Thu Mar 22 07:30:36 UTC 2018

Dear Simon,

Could you try the patch on this ?
https://github.com/mpsuzuki/poppler/commit/3f944ed5dee3496e7a7c661eabc3b16448316d13

this patch checks whether libfontconfig to be linked has the suffix for archive
library,
and if it has, invoke pkg-config --libs --static to collect all dependency.

If you dislike to download the diff and apply it by yourself,
you can also try "for-travis" branch which is working branch for Jeroen's issue
+ your issue.

I don't think this is specific issue for fontconfig, it would be generic issue
for the libraries with indirect dependency
(like libtiff depending with liblzma, libjbig, libjpeg, libz, libm).
If this works well for you, I would define some user-defined macro to care for
other libraries.

Regards,
mpsuzuki

I tried researching ways to ensure uuid is linked to the build but I wasn't confident on any solution. We build to /usr/local/ by default with the VM I'm running so fontconfig and all the libraries seem to build fine from that location. I install fontconfig myself as part of Poppler's dependencies.
