I've been a bit confused by this thread. We wrote a couple PostgreSQL functions (pdftotext and pdfisok) which use libpoppler. It didn't seem very hard to do without any of this. Granted, it isn't likely to be portable to all environments, which is why we haven't bothered to try to put it out for the community; but there didn't seem to be any great barriers for our environment (SuSE/gcc). Is this intended to make such efforts more portable, so they can be shared with more environments? Did we just get lucky? -Kevin P.S. Our environment: PostgreSQL 8.3.5 on x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu, compiled by GCC gcc (GCC) 4.1.2 20070115 (SUSE Linux)
