Hi Tim,  Glad you've got Frescobaldi working except for Poppler.  I haven't 
tackled upgrading to 2.0.10 yet, but I previously got Poppler to work with 
2.0.8 by installing it through MacPorts.  Here's my current version info, if 
that's helpful:

Frescobaldi: 2.0.8
Python: 2.7.3
Qt: 4.8.4
PyQt4: 4.9.6
sip: 4.14.2
Operating System:
Darwin-12.3.0-x86_64-i386-64bit


And here are some notes I made for myself, FWIW:

Use macports to install:
- poppler (using +qt4 variant (also added +quartz variant, but that's probably 
not necessary))

- use terminal to install poppler-qt from their site as described on 
frescobaldi site
  (note: I had to add "sudo" before python "setup.py install" to get it to work)
