Bug description:
  == SRU Impact ==

  Pretty minimal, adding a dependency to a shell script.

  == Regression Potential ==

  xxd has presumably already available on machines that have pollinate,
  or it'd have been reported by now. VIM is rather ubiquitous... So,
  this is unlikely to have any effect for most users.

  For the rest, things are a little more fun:
  vim-common Recommends: vim | vim-gnome | vim-gtk | vim-gtk3 | vim-athena | vim-nox | vim-tiny
  So, upgraders will get a full-blown vim pulled in. They'll also get a working pollinate.

  == Test Case ==

  In a minimal chroot, without vim-common & xxd:

  # pollinate
