The problem is that texlive-pictures contains epspdftk version 0.4.2.

0.4.3 adds compatibility with Ruby 1.9
0.5 is the most recent release with some large GUI changes.

I've tested "epspdftk.tcl" and "epspdf.rb" from 0.5; both work fine.

TL 2010 will be released soon (I hope), and that issue will be resolved then.
