Having used okular in KDE 4, I believe it is one of the best and most
feature rich pdf viewer out there. Mainly highlighting and ability to
do comments are of most interest to me.

However, I do not use KDE 4. Is it possible to build okular using QT4
libraries without KDE4? The package requirements in debian lists that
okular requires a bunch of kde 4 dependencies. A quick google search
did not reveal anything right away so I thought I'd ask here....

Any ideas?

Thanks!

AMit

I don't use KDE 4 either. apt-get update + apt-get install okular offers
to install/upgrade 57 libraries and install okular. 113MB. That takes me
about 5 hours. If you have broadband takes you 5 minutes.


Why don't you just do that?

You have to be kidding. There's no way I'm gonna install all that crap
to have YetAnotherViewer. At 110+ MB per application I would soon run
out of HD space--I know, I know, those libraries would also be used by
YetMore_K_insert_app_here. To be honest, when I read the OP I got
curious about Okular and was waiting to get home to see how bad would
it be to ask aptitude to install it. Now I know it's worse than I
feared. And it's not just the 5 minutes/5 hours of install time,
everytime the package and libraries get updated it'll have to be
downloaded again and again (if you're on Sid).
