Not sure, maybe a question for the developers list. itext (I'm
assuming it's the same itext), appears to be back:
https://admin.fedoraproject.org/pkgdb/package/itext/

Previously there was a problem with itext licensing, then by the time
that was sorted itext required gcj, which had gone. Would be nice to
see pdftk return.

There does appear to be pypdf2 which provides a pdfcat, there was some
interesting in packaging this earlier this year
