Well, I don't care much about names, but about versions.

Well, so far you have not provided enough information to even say that
your problem is the one that was reported here in #698456.

- can you reproduce the issue reported with the *provided* PDF 
document?

- can you please run evince from command line, and paste as-is the
   output you get from it when opening your document?

- can you please provide (if possible) a screenshot of evince opening
   your document?

Sigh, no. Evince renders documents using poppler-glib, which uses the
cairo-based rendering backend of Poppler. So your reassign is wrong.
(You can check yourself with other PDF viewers using poppler-glib, for
example apvlv, epdfview, gpdftext.)

Mathieu, I understand you care about solving the issue with your PDF
document, being able to view it on your Wheezy installation.
But please, provide *all* the information you can and let maintainers
look into it, instead of just telling "my document does not work",
changing the priority and randomly the product as well.

Thanks,
