Yes. Since the cycle doesn't appear anymore, I guess it was due to the
other (now fixed) package.el bug which didn't properly delete old
versions (bug#20836). I guess, some older pdf-tools version had the
tablist dependency, and then when upgrading to the newer version with
missing deps, tablist became auto-removable. But when starting again,
package.el also found the older version which still depended on tablist,
so it had to be installed again.
Well, I didn't actually verify that but it seems like a plausible story.
So I'm closing this issue and file a new one if it ever reappears.
Bye,
