Current python-poppler won't compile with poppler 0.16:

poppler.c: In Funktion »_wrap_poppler_page_get_text«:
poppler.c:3598:5: Fehler: zu viele Argumente für Funktion »poppler_page_get_text«
Attached patch is taken from madriva and will fix it:

While the patch is correct, theorically this changes the naming wrt the counterpart functions in poppler-glib, see the upstream commit:
http://
So renaming the functions, while ideal to match poppler-glib, would just break users of poppler-python (which will break anyway again with poppler 0.18).
