Package: qpdf
Version: 10.1.0-1

The QPDF Manual reads:

--password=password

Specifies a password for accessing encrypted files. Note that you can use @filename or @- as described above to put the password in a file or pass it via standard input so you can avoid specifying it on the command line.

So I tried:

  $ qpdf --decrypt --password=@- foo.pdf bar.pdf

But qpdf didn't read anything from stdin.

I also tried:

  $ qpdf --decrypt --password @- foo.pdf bar.pdf

This time qpdf read stuff from stdin, but then it died with:

  qpdf: --password must be given as --password=password
