Try adding `:demand t' in the `use-package' form.  It ensures that the
package is loaded right away (installing it if necessary), instead of
defering it later.

If that doesn't work, also try to move the install part from `:config'
to `:init'.  I used to have something about pdf-tools in my config, but
that has long gone.
