I am trying to put wkhtmltopdf onto a virtualbox'ed ubuntu 12.04 64bit server. So far no luck. The package from the repositories wants to have xserver running and the static version:

wkhtmltopdf google.com tesss.pdf

Any ideas how could I approach this?

Basically, it got fixed around a year ago, but has still not been released. What a mess :(

Try using 0.10.0_rc2 version instead, which worked perfectly for me
