Re: Etoile and PopplerKit

[David Chisnall]

Hi Patryk,

Your LanguageKit 'fixes' look as if they are going to completely break 
LanguageKit (just commending out code will fix the build, but the code is there 
because it's needed...).  What version of LLVM are you building it against?  

I think we should just disconnect PopplerKit from the default build - nothing 
uses it and it's been broken for a while.
