I have tried to manually download the latest version of gdal (2.3.0 at time of this post) so that I can compile it on linux x64 (ubuntu 16.04) with the --with-pdfium flag enabled to test out GeoPDF to MapBox Vector Tile conversion. After much tinkering I seem to have successfully compiled pdfium with https://github.com/klokantech/pdfium/blob/build/build-lin.sh, but when I go to compile gdal it errors out with undefined reference to CFDF_Document::CreateNewDoc().

Has anyone successfully built gdal 2.3.0 or above with the --with-pdfium on linux? Can you link to working instructions? Are there precompiled binaries available?

Edit: I can't get this working so I'm just going to use podofo which is installable from apt-get.

For the record, by adding the --without-libtool flag, the build ends with no errors, and GDAL seems to be working properly. However I don't know about the impact of compiling GDAL without libtool support.
