Great, that got me further. Now I got this though:

    No test data found in $testdatadir.
    You will not be able to run 'make test' successfully.
    The test data is not included in the source packages
    and is also not part of the main git repository. Instead,
    you can checkout the test data from its own git
    repository with:
      git clone git://git.freedesktop.org/git/poppler/test
    You should checkout the test data as a sibling of your
    poppler source folder or specify the location of your
    checkout with -DTESTDATADIR=/path/to/checkoutdir/test.


I tried to checkout into a "test" folder within my poppler-0.80.0 that contains all \
                the source code 
- but there is already a "test" folder there so it didn't want to do that! So where \
should I then  put it? Or how do I specify the DTESTDATADIR option? Tried "cmake \
-DTESTDATADIR=/home/allan/test .."  but that was obviously not correct...

On Debian that resulted in this error:

The following packages have unmet dependencies:
  builddeps:poppler : Depends: debhelper (>= 11) but it is not going to be installed

Then tried "apt install debhelper" and ran "apt-get build-dep libpoppler-dev" again \
but got this:

The following packages have unmet dependencies:
  builddeps:poppler : Depends: debhelper (>= 11) but 10.2.5 is to be installed
