Re: Etoile and PopplerKit

[Patryk Laurent]

I was using the latest LLVM from svn. I can get the revision number if that 
helps.  Everything in Etoile seems to be running pretty well so far, no real 
problems yet. 

I think the Vindaloo appbundled with Etoile uses PopplerKit, so we may want to 
remove it as well?

Do I need to follow up with someone on that, or just post to etoile-dev?
