Public bug reported:

== SRU Impact ==

Pretty minimal, adding a dependency to a shell script.

== Regression Potential ==

xxd has presumably already available on machines that have pollinate, or
it'd have been reported by now. VIM is rather ubiquitous... So, this is
unlikely to have any effect for most users. And for the rest, it'll just
make pollinate start to work.

== Test Case ==

In a minimal chroot, without vim-common & xxd:
