Bad idea --- xpdf was moved to non-free because of the non-DFSG license. [1]
Can you rework it to use the free version of ghostscript ?  Else magicfilter
will have to move to contrib, which would be a shame.

[1] The author has strong views on others not making profit from his work. I
tried to presuade him into the DFSG camp, but no luck.
