[oe] [PATCH 0/2] poppler nightmare

[Bill Randle]

I recently tried to cross build the current version of poppler for an
embedded ARM system. This was not under the Yocto/OE build
environment, but I never could get quite the right cmake config file
to get the thing to build. Since I just needed it for the pdftoraster
cups filter, I punted and built ghostscript instead. cmake may be fine
for native builds, but at least in this case, it was a pain to use for
cross-compilation.
