    Hi Release Team,

    This is a somewhat unusual transition request. The libmupdf-dev package
    used to only ship static library archives due to upstream preference. Recently upstream started to provide makefiles for building shared library
    so I think it's time to ship shared library in Debian.

    I've uploaded the new version to experimental (binary package libmupdf23.10) and tried to build the affected reverse build-deps (Cc'ed).

    ippsample - doesn't seem to use mupdf at all
    pymupdf - requires some changes. Likely also needs to update to new upstream version.
    sioyek - requires some changes to drop extra linker flags.

    Have bugs been filed for these issues?

    Cheers

    The packages are prepared in experimental.
