Created attachment 64313 [details] portability patch for configure.ac Configuring poppler-0.20.2 in a separate object dir failed for me on Solaris with the following error message: /vol/src/X11/poppler/poppler-0.20.2/configure: syntax error at line 23951: `(' unexpected This is due to the (wrong) assumption, that /bin/sh is always a bash. On Solaris (at least), /bin/sh is a real Bourne Shell and therefore does not know about $(...) command substitutions. The attached patch resolves this issue by replacing the $(...) command substitution with the more portable backtick evaluation.
