 # Changelog for next release
+
 - `PdfTextPage.get_text_range()`: Correct the allocation in case of excluded/inserted chars, modify scope to prevent pdfium from reading beyond `range(index, index+count)` (which otherwise it does with leading excluded chars). Update docs to note the two different representations. Thanks to Nikita Rybak for the discovery ({issue}`261`).
-- ctypesgen fork: replaced the old library loader with a new, lean version
+
 - Setup changes (partly ported from the devel branch)
+  * ctypesgen fork: replaced the old, bloated library loader with a new, lean version
   * Merged `$PDFIUM_VERSION` and `$PDFIUM_USE_V8` into the existing `$PDFIUM_PLATFORM` specifier (see Readme for updated description). The relatively minor setup API breakage was considered tolerable; the core library API is not affected.
   * Removed the `build` package from pyproject buildsystem requires, where it was unnecessary. Thanks to Anaconda Team.
   * Split in two separate modules: pypdfium2 for helpers (pure-python), pypdfium2_raw for the core bindings (data files).
+
 - Switched PyPI upload to "trusted publishing" (OIDC), which is considered safer. Further, the core maintainers have set up 2FA as requested by PyPI.
+
+*Note: Earlier releases may fail to install from source due to API-breaking changes to our ctypesgen fork (see {issue}`264`). Where possible, avoid source installs and use the wheels instead (the default behavior). If you actually have to do this, consider `--no-build-isolation` and pre-installed dependencies, including ctypesgen prior to commit `61c638b`.*
