~]$ man pdftohtml
No manual entry for pdftohtml

~]$ sudo yum install pdf2html
Nothing to do

I downloaded the tarball from SourceForge, but the build fails with:

make[1]: Entering directory `/home/kgr/Desktop/pdftohtml-0.39/src'
g++ -g -O2 -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -DHAVE_DIRENT_H=1  -I.. -DHAVE_REWINDDIR=1

make[1]: *** [HtmlOutputDev.o] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/kgr/Desktop/pdftohtml-0.39/src'
make: *** [all] Error 2

Anything else I could try?
