Well, it's behind and it's probably full of security bugs given the embedded xpdf
probably never got fixed. I don't think you should use that. (Besides that the differences
1.0.4 to 1.0.5 are marginal - if there are changes at all. Can very well be with
this broken version that there's no factual difference.)

If you have important new info, yes. Otherwise no.

I just can say it works here. (tried in above chroot). Various random .pdfs
open fine here.
