Poppler 0.18 also causes the usual API/ABI breakage in the private core 
library, plus some API loss in poppler-glib causes more problems too.

At the moment there are about a dozen or so sources in Debian which will 
*not* build at all with poppler 0.18, which means you won't see it in 
unstable soon. Maybe in a couple of months, but not before all the 
issues (which have been mostly reported) are solved.

Any pointer about this?

Evince of GNOME 3.2 and Okular of KDE 4.7 compile fine with poppler 
0.16. (Not to consider that Okular can compile and work with any 
poppler-qt4 version >= 0.8.)
