Bug#1063770: transition: mupdf

Package: release.debian.org
Severity: normal
X-Debbugs-Cc: mupdf@packages.debian.org, pymupdf@packages.debian.org, sioyek@packages.debian.org, ippsample@packages.debian.org
Control: affects -1 + src:mupdf

Usertags: transition

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.

Ben file:

title = "mupdf";
is_affected = .build-depends ~ "libmupdf-dev";
is_good = .depends ~ "libmupdf23.10";
is_bad = ! .depends ~ "libmupdf23.10";
