Hi all,
We needed pdfedit for Fedora 16 and is not avaiable anymore. It is present in Fedora <= 15 It was easy to rebuild pdfedit-0.4.5-4.fc16.x86_64.rpm and it works well. So the question: why was it discontinued for Fedora users?
For those that need it here are the steps:
1 - get pdfedit-0.4.5-4.fc15.src.rpm 2 - extract from it pdfedit-4.5.4.tar.bz2 pdfedit.spec and pdfedit.desktop 3 - follow the steps shown in http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/How_to_create_an_RPM_package#SPEC_example and install the packages needed for building process
Good luck!

I have pdfedit on my F16 machine which comes from a rpm with the same name.

Where did you find it? I did not find one, I was forced to build it today.

Well it just was there. When I ran yum whatprovides */pdfedit it told me what rpm to install. What is strange it told me it came from a repo @update/15 There is no repo on my machine with that name. It is indeed a F15 rpm. - ======================================================================= The philosopher's treatment of a question is like the treatment of an illness. -- Wittgenstein. ======================================================================= Aaron Konstam telephone: (210) 656-0355 e-mail: akonstam@sbcglobal.net

That's a Fedora 15 RPM and it came from the Fedora 15 updates repository. If you upgraded to Fedora 16, there is nothing strange going on.

It was orphaned by the maintainer and noone else stepped up. Apparently it has bugs and upstream is inactive.

I downloaded pdfedit pdfedit-0.4.5.tar.bz2 and try to build it by make. after ./configure. I was informed ............... checking for size_t... yes checking whether struct tm is in sys/time.h or time.h... time.h checking how to run the C preprocessor... gcc -E checking if zlib is wanted... configure: error: libz not found ................ . I check the zlib with rpm -qa zlib, the system inform that pdfedit-0.4.5.tar.bz2 exists. who tell me why, and how to do?

You might need libz-devel (or whatever it's called).

You must have in your system the devel packages for zlib if you want to build the package: $ yum search zlib-devel

sudo yum install pdfedit --releasever=15 runs in F16 too!

Except I did not update to F16 from F15. I installed fresh from the installation DVD. So there is something strange going on.

Not strange at all. It just means that there hasn't been an update recently and whoever's responsible for the package didn't repackage it for F16. Happens all the time.
Hello,
I'm trying to install pdfedit. Ran:
$yum install pdfedit --releasever=15
But received the following: -------------------------- Retrieving key from file:///etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-fedora-x86_64
The GPG keys listed for the "Fedora 15 - x86_64 - Updates" repository are already installed but they are not correct for this package. Check that the correct key URLs are configured for this repository.
--------------------------- I don't know how to check key URLs. Has anyone else experienced such a problem?
Regards, N
