Samuel, thank you for the hint.I have now added poppler-utils, ImageMagick, and liblouisutdml-bin to the hard dependencies of cups-filters, as these are enough to use the Braille drivers in the normal desktop use case, where files are printer from applications. Applications usually send only PDF when printing, CUPS usually accepts also images and plain text which is also covered by these.
antiword and docx2txt I have added to Suggests:, they are only needed to convert MS Word documents.
I have also looked into the Debian package of liblouisutdml-bin and found out that it also depends on antiword and ooo2dbk but I wonder why, as there is no reference to these in any non-documentation file of the liblouisutdml source package. For a standard peinting workflow where usually PDF, sometimes plain text or images are sent, these dependencies could be moved to Suggests:, so that I can sync the package from Ubuntu without needing to get antiword and ooo2dbk into the standard installation. Samuel, as you seem to be the maintainer of liblouisutdml-bin, can you do so? Thanks.
