Ah OK, so not part of TeX Live.

But, strange nevertheless: on my Linux box (Mageia 5):

  ┌────
  │ $ rpm -ql xpdf                
  │ /usr/bin/xpdf
  │ /usr/share/applications/xpdf.desktop
  │ /usr/share/icons/large/xpdf.png
  │ /usr/share/icons/mini/xpdf.png
  │ /usr/share/icons/xpdf.png
  │ /usr/share/man/man1/xpdf.1.xz
