pdftag's Issues

Icons not loading, program crashes on Windows x64 v1.04

My problem

Hi, I'm having a problem with the v1.04 release on my Windows 7 64-bit machine. No icons are displaying, and when I click where I believe the "open file" button is based on the screenshot from the README, the program crashes.

What I did

1. I downloaded the v1.04 release (as that was the release with Windows binaries)
2. I extracted the files to C:\Users\Sam Cantrell\bin\pdftag
3. I ran pdftag.exe
4. The program opens, with no program icons shown except what appears to be a generic icon.
   
5. I click what I think is the "open file" button, as I don't see any tooltips.
   
6. The program crashes.

Flatpak manifest

Hi,

I made a Flatpak manifest for pdftag.

  "runtime-version" : "3.28",
  "sdk" : "org.gnome.Sdk",

      "config-opts" : [

      ],
      "sources" : [
        {
          "url" : "https://anongit.freedesktop.org/git/poppler/poppler.git",
          "type" : "git"
        }
      ]
    },

    }
  ],

License installed in hardcoded path

Hi Adrià,

"merci beaucoup" for pdftag - very useful. One issue: in meson.build, the path you use for storing the license is hardcoded. In not all distro's this is a suitable place, and it would make most sense to install this in the path the user set with --prefix.

Reason I'm asking is that I've packaged pdftag for Nixos:

NixOS/nixpkgs#45666

In NixOS (and probably other distro's too) there is not such a path, making the build fail. So I manually have to patch the meson.build ...

Submit to Flathub

Since you already have a Flatpak manifest, publishing the app on Flathub should be easy and would give you a lot more visibility ;)
