The problem I ran into was the required dependencies in the Fedora
packaging. Their current specfile in rawhide builds as follows...
%global itextvers 2.1.7

%description
If PDF is electronic paper, then pdftk is an electronic staple-remover,
hole-punch, binder, secret-decoder-ring, and X-Ray-glasses. Pdftk is a simple
tool for doing everyday things with PDF documents. Keep one in the top drawer
of your desktop and use it to:
* Merge PDF Documents
* Split PDF Pages into a New Document
* Decrypt Input as Necessary (Password Required)
* Encrypt Output as Desired
* Burst a PDF Document into Single Pages
* Report on PDF Metrics, including Metadata and Bookmarks
* Uncompress and Re-Compress Page Streams
* Repair Corrupted PDF (Where Possible)
Pdftk is also an example of how to use a library of Java classes in a
stand-alone C++ program. Specifically, it demonstrates how GCJ and CNI allow
C++ code to use iText's (itext-paulo) Java classes.

I'll go ahead and open a placeholder entry for new pdftk packaging
on fink tracking and upload the fedora specfile and patches there.
The main problem if I recall correctly is that need to install
the itext jar somewhere in the fink setup and we need to add the
equivalent to the java-devel package to fink. I'll upload the
specfile and patches for that as well to the same pdftk entry.
