 I vote for this patch. That is a much lighter dependency, and it's
 all we need.

 The current version of `xpdf` requires the `PAPERSIZE` environment
 variable to be set at runtime. Setting it stops that error message.

 The value of the environment variable is used as the default, but it
 is overridden if either the `-paper` option is specified
 on the command line or if `psPaperSize` is specified in `xpdfrc`.
