>Description:
This plugin is not longer developed/supported by claws-mail team due to
licensing problems. Poppler lib that this plugin uses contains code from
xpdf package which is licensed under GPLv2 only (no "or later" part) and
claws-mail uses GPLv3.
According to FSF GPLv2 only and GPLv3 are incompatible. Also this plugin
doesn't work with new claws-mail anyway.
