Regarding Xpdf

When i load pdf files in Xpdf application, which is installed from Third
Party Software CD, gives error message like “sh: Uncompress: Notfound”
But it works fine with some files but not all files. Could anybody help me
how to resolve this problem.

Thanks

You need to compile “compress” utility and “ln -s compress uncompress”.
I found suitable source in XFree86: “./xc/util/compress/compress.c”.
Just “qcc -o compress compress.c” and ignore warnings.

The link is there.

sounds like a bug in the build process for the 3rd party CD.
they should config it with gzip rather than compress.
