Follow-up Comment #5, bug #66143 (group groff): I did some googling and it seems there is a poppler version of pdftotext (probabely also pdfimages?), which _does_ support reading from stdin (who am I telling this, you wrote the test :)) and a version from xpdfreader.com, which does not (see [1,2]).
Unfortunately, homebrew's xpdf installs the latter one. But I found that there is a poppler package (conflicting with the xpdf package). After installing that, all tests are passing: ============================================================================ Testsuite summary for GNU roff 1.23.0.1842-c9b3c ============================================================================ # TOTAL: 214 # PASS: 211 # SKIP: 0 # XFAIL: 3 # FAIL: 0 # XPASS: 0 # ERROR: 0 ============================================================================ Hooray! :) Maybe, there could be a note somewhere (INSTALL.extra in the deps section, or somewhere?) mentioning this for MacOS and homebrew users? So, my only remaining real issue is this uchardet detection thing. I will dig around there a bit too... any hint for me?
