pdf-info-query: epdfinfo: Unknown render command: :selection-style

Describe the bug I use GNU Emacs 28.2 (build 1, x86_64-pc-linux-gnu, GTK+ Version 3.24.37, cairo version 1.16.0) of 2023-05-14, modified by Debian My setup is GNU/Linux Debian bookworm

I installed pdf-tools by MELPA

I installed epdfinfo with debian packet manager (apt)

I am unable to select any part of any pdf file. Each time I try to select a word or a character this message appears :

pdf-info-query: epdfinfo: Unknown render command: :selection-style

I don't know if if give enough information but I am currently unable to debug this issue

• pdf-tools customization / configuration that I use : 20230611.239

Finally I compile the sources of epdfinfo and I made my .emacs pointing on this executable and it works. So I was due to a bad version of epdfinfo.
