Package: poppler-utils
Version: 0.18.4-8
Severity: wishlist
File: /usr/bin/pdftotext
This is an idea for an /etc/mailcap entry for pdftotext. It would allow
see foo.pdf
on a tty, or an explicit text rendition by
run-mailcap --action=cat foo.pdf
This is similar to the mailcap setups various html to text renderers
have.
I get some joy from the lines of debian/poppler-utils.mime below which
dh_installmime can copy to /usr/lib/mime/packages/poppler-utils
I don't know if type application/x-pdf is desirable or necessary or what
now but xpdf has it for its mailcap entries.
