It is not strictly essential, in that liblouis-bin could be used instead
to get the braille translation.  That will lower the quality of the
translation, because liblouis-bin has no notion of document structure
for instance, so it will not be able to properly use the title/paragraph
signs, etc, it will only able to translate the raw text output.  If we
do this, we'd need a way to warn the user through CUPS that he should
really install liblouisutdml-bin to get better output.
