-------------------------+-------------------------
 The book's instructions for Poppler could use some refinement, but I
 wanted to check first to verify if my assumptions are correct.

 Mainly, I don't understand why the instructions for "qt4 or qt5 at /usr,
 or without qt or with qt4 in /opt" are separate from "qt5 in /opt"
 instructions. Why would qt5 in /opt, specifically, need to be singled out
 with its own set of instructions? It would be much simpler just to say
 something like "If you have only 1 Qt version installed, just skip to
 configure and Poppler will automatically find Qt. If you have both Qt
 versions, run source setqt4 before configure to build with qt4 support, or
 source setqt5 for qt5 support." Then follow this up with the
 configure/make/install commands, which won't need to be repeated.
