Thank you for taking care of this complicated update!
I tweaked the commit message and pushed as
35089dca4053bf5888441d1648086cdadb6eb1e4
I made the commit message like this:
------
gnu: Xpdf: Update to 4.03.
* gnu/packages/pdf.scm (xpdf): Update to 4.03.
[source]: Update URL.
[build-system]: Use cmake-build-system.
[arguments]: Remove #:parallel-build?, #:configure-flags and #:phases.
[inputs]: Add cups, freetype & qtbase. Remove gs-fonts, lesstif, libpaper
libx11, libxext, libxp, libxpm & libxt.
------
The important difference is the use of () and [].
Basically, when we make changes to variables and functions — things that
are explicitly defined or exported — we put their names (parentheses).
Then, we describe changes to their components or fields in [brackets].
Does that make sense? I would have tweaked the commit message for your
vorbis-tools commit but I didn't notice the "(source)".
