I updated my precise system (I do that about once a day using the
proposed repos) and the pdf issue is still present but hopefully will be
fixed in a future update. There is no issue here as far as I am concerned.

I already had libpopt0 installed and tried re-installing but with no
difference. Then I realised that I am running on a 64bit system. The
solution for me was to install the i386 libpopt0 package. When I did
this, it works :-) So the Canon drivers must be 32bit I guess.
