Hi, first of all thanks for your works, been using zathura since forever :smile:

Second, can I ask the reason behind this "violent" change in dependencies? If I recall correctly, it was 2.50 before and zathura can be installed on Ubuntu 20.04. Now, since it requires 2.74, it can't even be build anymore on my Ubuntu 22.04 since the last version available is 2.72. I really don't want to upgrade my OS just for zathura :smile:

Thanks in advance

There's a limit to what we are able to support and thus we typically require what is in the current Debian stable release. I'll downgrade them to 2.72 until the next Ubuntu LTS is available.
