pdfEdit a Workable deb Package

[ramjet_1953]

Hi, Guys!

I finally found a deb package for pdfEdit that works fine on my system, after trying several times (unsuccessfully) to "roll my own".

Here's the link:

thanks for the heads-up.

do you know what deps are needed? I the package installs fine with dpkg, but I get

% pdfedit pdfedit: Symbol `_ZTI11QDragObject' has different size in shared object, consider re-linking pdfedit: Symbol `_ZTI7QWidget' has different size in shared object, consider re-linking zsh: segmentation fault (core dumped) pdfedit

I think if you make sure that all of the QT libraries are installed, all should go OK.

If you still have problems, get back to me and I'll pull out my notes and give you a list of all the dependancies.

Regards,
Roger

FYI: I just tried an alien installation of the RPM at SourceForge.net, and it worked!

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install alien
wget -c http://internap.dl.sourceforge.net/sourceforge/pdfedit/pdfedit-0.2.5-1.i386.rpm
sudo alien -iv pdfedit-0.2.5-1.i386.rpm

I tried the alien installation, everything went smooth, except
when trying to run pdfedit I get the following error

pdfedit: /lib/tls/i686/cmov/libc.so.6: version `GLIBC_2.4' not found (required by pdfedit)

I'm not able to find glibc with apt-get, what package should I install?

I have seen a few people, here lately, that have been looking for a PDF editing type program. I found this particular 'post' through some searches and I am REALLY happy to say that this .deb works! In Feisty!! Had a couple problems trying to install pdfedit from src; had to install 'ant' and 'Apache FOP' but I found this before I got that finished so....

Thought I would pass along my good fortune and bump this up; hopefully help other folks...

Thanks! Worked for me!

I can't install it in Dapper, it says libc6 dependency not satisfiable. Can I do some workaround?

Using both methods (.deb and .rpm with alien)?
