Please forgive my ignorance when is comes to Cmake. I’m trying to install Poppler 0.86.1 on Centos 7 but I am stuck with an error that says CMake Error at CMakeLists.txt:208 (message): Install libopenjpeg2 before trying to build poppler.
I have installed libopenjpeg2 including the dev package by running the following:
sudo yum install openjpeg2-devel
I am taking the following steps to install poppler:
wget https://poppler.freedesktop.org/poppler-0.86.1.tar.xz
tar xf poppler-0.86.1.tar.xz
cd poppler-0.86.1/
mkdir build
cd build
cmake -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release ..
Which results in the following error
CMake Error at CMakeLists.txt:208 (message):
Install libopenjpeg2 before trying to build poppler. You can also decide
to use the internal unmaintained JPX decoder or none at all.
-- Configuring incomplete, errors occurred!
This is where the failure occurs in the CMakeLists.txt
if(ENABLE_LIBOPENJPEG STREQUAL "openjpeg2")
find_package(OpenJPEG)
set(WITH_OPENJPEG ${OpenJPEG_FOUND})
if(NOT OpenJPEG_FOUND OR OPENJPEG_MAJOR_VERSION VERSION_LESS 2)
message(FATAL_ERROR "Install libopenjpeg2 before trying to build poppler. You can also decide to use the internal unmaintained JPX decoder or none at all.")
endif()
...
Can anyone point me in the right direction in figuring out how to get Poppler 0.86.1 to successfully install on Centos 7?

If I remember correctly, I had the same problem when I was trying to use the latest version of the Poppler in my Docker image. I fixed it by installing
libopenjp2-7-dev
. Please check my answer, specifically, the second row of my Dockerfile where you can see what I installed before runningcmake
.I hit this and it was due to https://github.com/uclouvain/openjpeg/issues/1174. I modified my local copy of
/lib64/openjpeg-2.3/OpenJPEGConfig.cmake
to work around this.
