On Fri, 6 Mar 2009 Siep Kroonenberg submitted an update to the

  epspdf

and

  epspdf-extra 

packages.

Epspdf[tk] is a Ruby script which converts between PostScript, EPS and PDF.  It 
has both a command-line and a GUI interface.

Using pdftops (from the xpdf command-line utilities) for round-tripping opens up 
several new possibilities compared to older similarly-named utilities.

epspdf-extra provides multi-platform support for epspdf.
