This tells me that the alternative on xpdf-utils in Depends ought to
be dropped, even though xpdf-utils and poppler-utils should in
principle be the same codebase. In practice, Poppler is maintained
more actively, while XPDF is slowly deprecating.

Kenshi?  Martin?  Till?  Does this make sense to you?  Should we drop
all references to XPDF components?
