1.9.3 uses the same popplerqt4 module as 2.0.0, so maybe something else
has been changed during an upgrade?

Bu sure to install python-poppler-qt4 for the same Python version as
Frescobaldi is using.

Best option probably is just install 1.9.3 again (but that has its
chare of bugs:-)

Uninstall is not directly provided by distutils, unfortunately, but
uninstalling Frescobaldi 2.x is very simple:

rm $PREFIX/bin/frescobaldi
rm $PREFIX/lib/python2.[67]/dist-packages/frescobaldi_app -r

where $PREFIX=/usr/local by default.

In fact, you can put the frescobaldi-2.0.0 directory anywhere and make
a symlink from a folder somewhere in your $PATH to the frescobaldi
script. All application scripts and data Frescobaldi uses is inside the
frescobaldi_app package.
