Hi List/Evangelos:

This is a really useful utility, I'd like to use it to join documents.

It dosn't seem to be built against a 'patched version' of qt whatever that may 
mean.:

"This version of wkhtmltopdf is build against an unpatched version of QT, and 
does not support more then one input document."

I see that there is a PKGBUILD, and wondered if anyone knew how to get a 
'patched version' of QT to build it against to get more functionality.

build() {
  cd "$srcdir/$pkgname-$pkgver"

  qmake wkhtmltopdf.pro
  make || return 1

  # Generate and install man page
  install -d "$pkgdir/usr/share/man/man1"
  ./wkhtmltopdf --manpage >"$pkgdir/usr/share/man/man1/wkhtmltopdf.1"
}
