Cannot print or export to PDF as vector graphics

[jjojala]

Steps to reproduce

1. Open "forest sample.omap" (part of the distribution)
2. From the menu: File->Export as...->PDF
3. PDF export dialog appears for setting export options

Actual behaviour

Mode "Raster graphics" is on. Mode "Vector graphis" is disabled and cannot be chosen. PDF is generated in raster graphics mode.

Expected behaviour

Mode "Vector graphics" should be available (as it used to be in 0.9.4).

Configuration

Mapper Version: 0.9.5
Operating System: Windows 10 Pro

My C++ skills are already a bit rusty after so many years, but does it seem be in
https://github.com/OpenOrienteering/mapper/blob/v0.9.5/src/gui/print_widget.cpp#L658
that invokes method kmzTarget() in https://github.com/OpenOrienteering/mapper/blob/v0.9.5/src/core/map_printer.cpp#L401
that returns always non-NULL, i.e. TRUE.

@jjojala: Yes, I agree.
bool is_raster_target = target == MapPrinter::imageTarget() || target == MapPrinter::kmzTarget();
does solve the issue and offers Vector graphics again.

@dg0yt, please, update master and unstable builds on OBS.

JFTR, @jjojala, latest unstable 0.9.20211224 builds already include fix for this issue — vector PDF works as expected now!

There was no release & unstable builds for a while and existing builds on OBS are not suitable for latest Debian 12.

@dg0yt, Could be fresh unstable/master compiled and packaged, including for Debian 12, on OBS?
