Package: pdftk
Version: 2.02-1
Severity: wishlist

It would be really cool to say "cat all pages except 2–5", e.g.

  pdftk A.pdf cat ~2-5 output B.pdf

or somesuch. My use case is that I often have huge documents that
I need to split into multiple, multi-page documents. So I use pdftk
to extract a page range, but I would then love to replace the source
PDF with a new version with those pages removed. And I don't think
there's a way to deduce the inverted page range outside pdftk.
