Interesting, I wasn't aware of these being packaged separately... mind
collaborating to integrate this into poppler-data (which also contains a
copy of most/all of these)?

Sure, I'd be happy to collaborate on that. 

Taking a brief look at poppler-data, it seems like the right thing to do would be to ship symlinks to the right locations under /usr/share/cmap and add a Requires for the cmap packages? These directories are versioned, e.g. "/usr/share/cmap/cmap-japan1-6-2012.08.14/", which seemed like a good idea at the time.

It looks like poppler-data also has the deprecated cmap-japan2-0 resources (https://github.com/adobe-type-tools/cmap-resources/tree/master/Deprecated), which are not currently packaged. I could fix this. :)
