That concerns the compilation error which is a bit tangential to the issue.  
Even if the interfaces were superficially completely binary compatible, when 
there are substantial reductions in functionality making it unavoidable to be 
using two different versions of the library at the same time, the library 
numbers have to be changed.  Only straightforward extensions in functionality 
and bug fixes can afford to keep the same numbers because only then there is no 
incentive to use more than one version of the library at the same time.

** [issues:#5545] Compatibility with pango 1.44**

**Status:** Accepted
**Created:** Wed Jul 31, 2019 07:59 AM UTC by Simon Albrecht

[Reported by T. 
Sefzick:](https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-lilypond/2019-07/msg00035.html)

With the new pango version 1.44 compilation of

`src/lilypond/lily/pango-font.cc`

gives warnings about
`'void* pango_fc_font_lock_face(PangoFcFont*)'`
to be deprecated and
`'pango_font_get_hb_font'`
should be used instead.

followed by
`error: invalid conversion from 'gpointer' {aka 'void*'} to 'FT_Face' {aka 
'FT_FaceRec_*'}`

Seems that pango doesn't work with freetype fonts anymore.

A side note: lilypond executables compiled with pango <=1.43
produce an empty 1st page when run with pango 1.44 installed.
