poppler conflicts with xpdf — at Version 2

Reported by: gale@… Owned by: macports-tickets@…
Priority: Normal Milestone:
Component: ports Version: 1.6.0
Keywords: Cc: ricci@…
Port: poppler xpdf

Description (last modified by blb@…)

poppler 0.10.1 cannot be installed simultaneously with xpdf 3.02 because there are many files that both ports try to install.

poppler advertises itself as "based on the xpdf code base". If so, it should depend on xpdf instead of installing some of xpdf's files itself. Better yet, create an xpdf-tools port that contains the files common to both.

The list of conflicting files is:

/opt/local/bin/pdffonts
/opt/local/bin/pdfimages
/opt/local/bin/pdfinfo
/opt/local/bin/pdftoppm
/opt/local/bin/pdftops
/opt/local/bin/pdftotext
/opt/local/share/man/man1/pdffonts.1.gz
/opt/local/share/man/man1/pdfimages.1.gz
/opt/local/share/man/man1/pdfinfo.1.gz
/opt/local/share/man/man1/pdftoppm.1.gz
/opt/local/share/man/man1/pdftops.1.gz
/opt/local/share/man/man1/pdftotext.1.gz
