Poppler’s glib bindings
Since the public release of ePDFView on freshmeat and GnomeFiles I have received users comments about ePDFView not compiling.It seems that Poppler won’t support the old Xpdf header files anymore and don’t install them unless the –enable-xpdf-headers option is passed to the configure script. But the worst of all is that CairoOutputDev.h file is not installed on Poppler version 0.5.1. Since I use version 0.5.0 I didn’t notice that.
So, the first thing to do for the next version is use the glib bindings of Poppler, that seems to be the only way for GTK+ applications to use Poppler in future versions.

Hi, Ive just don a recipe for epdfvew for OE build system (http://www.openembedded.org) based on the latest svn version of epdfview and I am very impressed.
I look forward to your next release. But I wondered could you fix the build stuff in svn as I ended up copying intl/Makefile* and po/Makefile* from the release build.
I must this viewer is nice and fast and small, perfect for a PDA device. Only one feature Id love to see is ability to drag around a zoomed pdf with the stylus (left mouse button).
Keep up the good work, I love it.

Looking very nice, cheers.
