No, you missed the point of the xpdf package.

xpdf is divided into xpdf-reader and xpdf-utils.
If you want just the reader, just install xpdf-reader (/usr/bin/xpdf).
If you want just the utils, just install xpdf-utils.

If you want both, you may install xpdf.

If you remove xpdf-utils using your command above, you will still
have xpdf-reader, which is what you wanted.
