Public bug reported: As I noted in [1], evince refuses to copy-paste from most PDF files (including one that I generated with OpenOffice2) because of the missing support for EUC-JP. Installing the package xpdf-japanese fixed the problem.
Give that copy-paste appears broken without it, shouldn't this package be a hard depedency of evince or libpoppler?
