Description of problem: The recently removed (1.10a-3) libmdfthird.a is a build dependency of zathura-pdf-mupdf, which now no longer builds. Please, revert this change. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 1.10a-[34].fc2[567] How reproducible: Always. The file is missing. Steps to Reproduce: 1. Try to build zathura-pdf-mupdf with mupdf 1.10a-3 or newer Actual results: Linking fails with /usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lmupdfthird Expected results: The file is there and linking succeeds. Additional info: I don't know enough about mupdf to tell what this particular library provides, or should provide, nor whether it's actually necessary -- perhaps patching zathura-pdf-mupdf's config.mk would be sufficient. However, I find this change quite surprising and the comment in the SPEC file doesn't help me understand it very much.

Please, revert this change. libmupdfthird is supposed to be built from thirdparty directory which is removed because of Fedora policy so this library is empty (4K size) just because there's nothing to be built and rpmlint complains about having it in the system. Are you really sure you need it?
Maybe I don't -- if the library was always empty, it's very well possible zathura-pdf-mupdf doesn't actually need anything in it. I'll patch the plugin and will get back to you.
It works just fine. Sorry for the noise.
