Dr. Volker Zell,
The command-line utilities in poppler conflict with those in xpdf. As
poppler has more features and is better maintained, I propose to follow
Fedora's lead and ship them in poppler instead of xpdf.
All I need you to do is, while you're updating to xpdf-3.03, add this
line to your .cygport after cyginstall:
rm -fr ${D}/usr/{bin,share/man/man1}/pdf*
Thanks,
Yaakov
