the PoDoFoBrowser hasn't been changed/maintained for the whole decade (from 
2011,
of course) so it's "normal" that it can break on newer systems.

That URL is outdated, please use the svn checkout option --ignore-externals for
your "main" checkout and then manually checkout the tag using the current URL
https://svn.code.sf.net/p/podofo/code/podofo/tags/RELEASE_0_8_4 but note well
that it's very outdated and likely to be very broken compared to current PoDoFo.
PoDoFoBrowser also has probably never been tested since Qt 4.3 was released.

Except trying to get something long unmaintained, not really (please see above
for a workaround, but the whole browser thing hasn't been tested for long, so
it's very likely to break).
