Description:    Ubuntu Wily Werewolf (development branch)
Release:    15.10

apt-cache policy poppler-utils

  Installed: 0.33.0-0ubuntu3

What is expected to happen with Evince is that when one opens the attached PDF
file, one may select any of the text, just like in Adobe Reader.

What happens instead is only a handful of letters are selectable as per

against Ubuntu 9.10 evince 2.28.1-0ubuntu1.2 / poppler-utils 0.12.4-0ubuntu4.
