Bug#955455: poppler should be built with boost (headers only)

Package: poppler
Version: 0.85.0-1

Hi,

Certain speed improvements in poppler's pdftoppm need boost (headers
only). This is since 0.80. If boost headers are available at build time,
they are used.

That would be nice to add this build dependency.

Without it you probably get a warning message during the configure
process (CMake): "Warning: Use of boost is recommended for better
performance."

Thanks,

Hub
