Hi, Jonas. Long time no see from NYC :)

Yes, yes. I know poppler-data and cmap-adobe* has duplicated mapping data.
- cmap-adobe comes from the highest upstream (Adobe), but no versioning scheme
for release.
- poppler-data bundles some cmap-adobe code to make it easier to use.
And other distros (like Fedora or so) also use poppler-data.
Since I'm poppler-data package maintainer, I want to continue to keep it.
poppler-data - It's simple, package name compatibility with other Distro.
