Gentoo Full Text Bug Listing

Hi,

i noticed that there is an use flag called "pdf" in the beagle ebuild (0.2.4 -
0.2.6). But it seems to be unnecessary or at least i can't figure out why it's
there.

I'm not sure if it's really a bug.

best regards

It should be used to depend on whichever package provides the pdf extraction
utility

I found this on http://beaglewiki.org/Gentoo_Installation

pdf:  Enables a simple dependency on app-text/poppler, which will allow PDF
files to be indexed.

this is right... pdf use flag pulls poppler (seems to me and to Daniel the best
way) to index pdf's with beagle. We don't need xpdf crap backend.

does it really pull poppler ? the use flag is not used anywhere (there is only
one occurrence of ``pdf'' within the whole ebuild and thats in IUSE-list). Also
see output of the following command:

# USE=pdf emerge app-misc/beagle -pve | grep poppler | wc -l
0

Please reopen bug. Thanks

reopening indeed the ebuild isn't right 
let me investigate what's wrong.

ok the problem was when we moved to 0.2.x series we didn't add the pdf use flag
(me and Daniel fault).
Daniel is ok to you to add the pdf use flag with a dependency for poppler to
fix this bug ?

yes

thank you very much Chris for the report
I added the pdf use flag (depends of poppler) to beagle 0.2.6 i will remove the
older ones when we commit 0.2.7 to portage when it goes out.

Thanks again
