Comment 3 for bug 656363

The fact that evince 2.32 should support it is clearly stated here:
http://library.gnome.org/misc/release-notes/2.32/

Found this post from the feature author: http://febuntoo.com/carlos-garcia-campos-adding-new-annotations-with-evince.html
Looking at the video you can see how it is supposed to access to the annotations related tools (very hidden!). In the actual Maverick version I'm able to see any already present annotation (it is possible to change the text and to 'save as' the final document) but I can't add any new annotation. The 'add' tab is missing.

I was thinking that it may depends on an old version of the poppler library in Maverick. In this article he says that such feature requires a recent version of the poppler library ("current git master") but such article is dated on 26th of July 2010.

The actual version of the poppler is 0.14.3 and the Ubuntu package has been packaged on the 15th of September (on a "New upstream bug fix release").
Now I've found that it seems to require the 0.15 version:

It is a developtment version and I guess Ubuntu is not going to package it... :(
