Quoting #libreoffice-dev:
Nov 27 09:58:48 <tml_> hmm, sberg's question "Unless Tor's BUILD_TYPE
!= DESKTOP work for Android and iOS would  benefit from having
xpdf/poppler/PDF Import still buildable  conditionally?"
Nov 27 09:59:06 <tml_> somebody tell me, it is still so that PDF
import uses a separate process, right?
Nov 27 09:59:22 <sberg> tml_, yes
Nov 27 09:59:52 <tml_> ok, then definitely for iOS, presumably for
Android, too, no pdf import
Nov 27 10:00:16 <tml_> although in theory on some other non-desktop OS
running a separate process might be OK
Nov 27 10:03:40 <Fridrich> sberg: you can push it into the same module
where all the drawing import filters are
Nov 27 10:04:12 <Fridrich> sberg: but the problem is that this is
needed also for import of "hybrid" pdf if I recall well and it might
be indeed needed in core
Nov 27 10:04:30 <sberg> tml_, so I'll leave --disable-pdfimport intact
for now
Nov 27 10:06:54 <tml_> sberg: or maybe make it into a switch that just
automatically is turned off for iOS and Android, turned on for other
platforms, with no command-line option necessary?
Nov 27 10:07:19 <tml_> we have too much pontless optionality when
configuring anyway, don't we?
Nov 27 10:07:37 <sberg> Fridrich, yeah, it's not only relevant for
Draw import, but indeed for all apps -- that's why I added it to the
root module in the first place; I guess I'll create a fresh scp2-level
module for it, and subsequent packaging mechanisms can then decide for
themselves whether to make it an optional module in their packaging
system (like Rene will apparently make it an extra deb package, but
the Windows msi installer will likely always install it)
Nov 27 10:07:45 <tml_> every option doubles the testing space;)
Nov 27 10:07:56 <sberg> tml_, yes, even better

So --disable-pdfimport is gone completely with <http://cgit.freedesktop.org/libreoffice/core/commit/?id=79e5ee5f6949f4b8645ef32dba61705d02473c60> "Isolate PDF Import so it can be made optionally installable." PDF Import is built unconditionally for all platforms but Android and iOS now. The relevant files are isolated into their own scp2 module now, so that distros using --with-system-poppler can easily put them into a distinct package.
