The tendency to split packages is a debian/ubuntu thing that sometimes catches users (and developers!) off guard if you're unaware of it -- the primary reason, IIRC, is to allow people to save space by removing parts of software they don't need. (For example, there are separate linux- image- (kernel image only), linux-headers- (kernel headers only), and linux-source- (kernel source only) packages in Ubuntu/Debian.) This is useful for e.g. embedded systems (Debian targets, I think, about 11 archs; some of which are for smaller form factors) and live CDs/DVDs and other places where space is tight.
http://packages.ubuntu.com/ provides an interface to allow searching for existing packages, as well as the contents of existing packages. (For Debian, http://packages.debian.org/ is similar -- AFAIK the two are based on the same codebase.) I found poppler-utils by searching for packages which contained "pdftoabw" on that page. -- Please update to version 2.6 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/202174 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
