Dear Luca,

I see you have some interest in jpeg-xl package in Debian. You
previously mentioned:

If you work closely with upstream, the most difficult tasks for me
(Debian hat on) were:

* Dealing with convenient copies [*], I could not manage to get rid of
highway and lodepng. Would be nice if those were not required,
* Use of system lcms2. There is a pending patch that has never been
integrated upstream [**],
* djxl and cjxl are using the static jxl library. This is not a good
practice (again Debian hat on), since every time we fix a bug in the
shared libjxl, this means recompiling cjxl/djxl for no good reason.
Please make it configurable.
* I also see a minor issue with exported symbols in jxl-threads (but I
can live with that).

Thanks for your time,
