 ## 4.30.0 (2024-05-09)
 
-*Backported bug fixes / corrections from current development branch to preferably leave v4 in a clean state.*
+*Backported bug fixes / corrections from current development branch.*
 
 - Updated PDFium from `6406` to `6462`.
 - Fixed blunder in `PdfImage.extract()` producing an incorrect output path for prefixes containing a dot. In the `extract-images` CLI, this caused all output images of a type to be written to the same path for a document containing a non-extension dot in the filename.

 - `PdfPage.get_objects()`: Don't register pageobjects as children, because they don't need to be closed by the caller when part of a page. This avoids excessive caching of weakrefs that are not cleaned up with the object they refer to.
 - Fixed another dotted filepath blunder in the `extract-images` CLI. (The `PdfImage.extract()` API is not affected this time.)
 - Adapted setup code to `bdist_wheel` relocation (moved from wheel to setuptools).
-- Fixed installation with reference bindings (`PDFIUM_BINDINGS=reference`) by adding a missing `mkdir` call and actually including them in the sdist. (In older versions, this can be worked around by cloning the repository and creating the missing directory manually before installation.)

 - Fixed sourcebuild on windows by syncing patches with pdfium-binaries.
 - Updated test expectations: due to changes in pdfium, some numbers are now slightly different.
 - Fixed conda packaging: It is now required to explicitly specify `-c defaults` with `--override-channels`, presumably due to an upstream change.
