okular evince xpdf rendering white (or pale) pages

[Hernan G Solari <hgsolari@gmail.com>]

Hello

   things where working well in "old-stable" kernel Linux 
3.16.0-5-amd64 #1 SMP Debian 3.16.51-3+deb8u1 (2018-01-08) x86_64 GNU/Linux

but now (after upgrade of ??) some pdf files show white pages when 
viewed with:

okular, evince, xpdf or epdfview

Except for the old ghostview, no pdf-viewer appears to work (I have 
tried others such as epdfview)

At first sight this is related to bugs #886733 and #886798 except that

a. I have no problem with files or tex-script given in the bug-reports 
to reproduce the problem

b. "ldd /usr/bin/okular |grep poppler" returns nothing and the same can 
be said with evince.

xpdf is linked to libpoppler.so.46

¿Which package could be the problem? I cannot fill a bug report if I do 
not identify the package.

Thanks

                        Hernan
