Thank you for your input, and for OCRmyPDF.

I have a non-packaging question that I'd like to take this opportunity
to ask you: in your changelog entry for 3.2, it's explained that the new
"lossless reconstruction" feature is disabled by --deskew and
--clean-final but otherwise PDF contents are now added to but not
modified by OCRmyPDF.  I had observed that OCRmyPDF makes my PDFs much
smaller without making them any harder to read, presumably by changing
the content, and I rather liked this feature.  Can I turn it back on?
Or was --clean-final doing this and turning that on would be enough?

I've got a working package for 3.1 but I'm now trying to update my
packaging for the 3.2 series before I try to find a sponsor DD to upload
to Debian.  I'm figuring out how your change to use setuptools-scm can
be made to work with the Debian toolchain.

Cool!
