		Subject: Xpdf: Where is pdfinfo and pdftotext?

		Hey,
		I've updated my xpdf installation and now the tools
		'/usr/local/bin/pdfinfo' and '/usr/local/bin/pdftotext' are gone,
		which are previously bundled with xpdf. I tried reinstalling xpdf, but
		that does not help. Where is it gone? The manpages are still there.

	# pkg info -xl xpdf
	xpdf-3.03_3 owns the following files:
	/usr/local/bin/xpdf
	/usr/local/etc/xpdfrc
	/usr/local/libexec/xpdf/pdfdetach
	/usr/local/libexec/xpdf/pdffonts
	/usr/local/libexec/xpdf/pdfimages
	/usr/local/libexec/xpdf/pdfinfo
	/usr/local/libexec/xpdf/pdftoppm
	/usr/local/libexec/xpdf/pdftops
	/usr/local/libexec/xpdf/pdftotext
	/usr/local/libexec/xpdf/xpdf
	/usr/local/man/man1/pdfdetach.1.gz
	/usr/local/man/man1/pdffonts.1.gz
	/usr/local/man/man1/pdfimages.1.gz
	/usr/local/man/man1/pdfinfo.1.gz

	/usr/local/man/man1/pdftops.1.gz
	/usr/local/man/man1/pdftotext.1.gz

Also,
/usr/local/bin/ps2ascii, part of ghostscript, is
an alternative to pdftotext.
