PDF libraries in sites/all/libraries directory [#582104]

Hi !

The PDF library must be saved in sites/all/modules/print/lib directory. When updating, it is quite complicated not to delete it when deleting the module files ; when deleted, it must be uploaded again.

The WYSIWYG module also requires a third tool (the WISYWYG editor itself), but stores it in a sites/all/libraries directory. So, both (module and third tool) are independent, which makes updating much easier.

Would it be possible to make print.module use this sites/all/libraries directory for PDF lib ?

Thanks a lot and sorry if this was already requested (didn't see) !

Thanks for the suggestion. You weren't the first to request it, but you were the first to provide the location which will probably be supported by all modules (eventually through the Libraries API module).

I've committed a patch to CVS to look for the PDF libraries in sites/all/libraries.
