I think you just hit bull's eye there. This was what I tested with:
[alver at Crusoe ~]$ dpkg -l *poppler* | grep ^ii
ii libpoppler-glib8:amd64 0.26.5-2 amd64 PDF rendering library (GLib-based shared library)
ii libpoppler46:amd64 0.26.5-1 amd64 PDF rendering library
ii poppler-data 0.4.7-1 all encoding data for the poppler PDF rendering library
ii poppler-utils 0.26.5-2 amd64 PDF utilities (based on Poppler)
Do note the slight version difference between libpoppler46:amd64 and
libpoppler-glib8:amd64.
When installing libpoppler-dev as you requested, it pulled in
libpoppler46:amd64 0.26.5-2, and lo and behold, evince opens PDFs again. So
something in the tiny versions caused it, and somehow the version didn't get up
to my workstation until just now.
