Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: xpdf-utils
many core packages depends on poppler-utils while xpdf-utils conflict with
poppler-utils.
so, when somebody install xpdf-utils, these core packages will be removed.
this is not necessary.
one suggestion is that using alternatives mechanisms to have xpdf-utils
and poppler-utils co-exist in system.
xpdf-utils has some advantages while processing buggy pdfs.
