"I decided to try fool evince into using poppler3 from intrepid. Intrepid
version compiles fine on Hardy, and I managed to replace them with an ugly hack
with symlinks between libpoppler.so.3/libpoppler.so.2 and
libpoppler-glib.so.3/libpoppler-glib.so.2. Not surprisingly, it was very
unstable, and evince crashed on mouseover actions, so I couldn't select/copy to
test for other bugs (bug #33288 for example). But it kind of worked.

I'm attaching a new screenshot of the result. It's still not perfect, the "fi"
string still appear as an undefined (to me at least) ascii character (look for
the first sentence in the abstract: "We describe a unified ...". Also appear in
the last two of the abstract). Even so, readbility has improved vastly in this
case. Unfortunately, I can't use this hack for production use, since they cause
evince to crash more often than not."
