any user-visible functional changes to the library API or CLI but
completely replaces the build system. Details can be found in the
manual in the "Building and Installing QPDF" and "Notes for

10.6.3 + cmake: March 19, 2022
- This is an unofficial release and is marked as "pre-release" at
github. It is intended for developers and packagers who want to
test out the new build system.
- The old autoconf-based build has been replaced with CMake. Version
3.16 or newer is required. For all the details, please read
:ref:`installing` and, if you package qpdf for a distribution,
:ref:`packaging`.
- For the most part, other than being familiar with generally how to
build things with cmake, what you need to know to convert your
build over is described in :ref:`autoconf-to-cmake`. Here are a
few changes in behavior to be aware of:
- Example sources are installed by default in the documentation
directory.
- The configure options to enable image comparison and large file
tests have been replaced by environment variables. The old
options set environment variables behind the scenes. Before, to
skip image tests, you had to set
``QPDF_SKIP_TEST_COMPARE_IMAGES=1``, which was done by default.
Now these are off by default, and you have to set
``QPDF_TEST_COMPARE_IMAGES=1`` to enable them.
- In the default configuration, the native crypto provider is only
selected when explicitly requested or when there are no other
options. See :ref:`crypto.build` for a detailed discussion.
- Windows external libraries are detected by default if the
:file:`external-libraries` directory is found. Static libraries
for zlib, libjpeg, and openssl are provided as described in
:file:`README-windows.md`. They are only compatible with
non-debug builds.
- A new directory called ``pkg-tests`` has been added which
contains short shell scripts that can be used to smoke test an
installed qpdf package. These are used by the debian
``autopkgtest`` framework but can be used by others. See
:file:`pkg-test/README.md` for details.
