It seems like frr is the only reverse dependency of libyang that does
not provide support for libyang5 yet. Upstream has added support in v10.7.0-rc1.

I request this because I am interested in a library transition for
libyang and this seems to be the blocker. If you want I can hand in an
update as merge request or patch.

Hi Bastian,

yes, I'm aware and want to get libyang 5 to sid at some point earlier
than later. I've filled issues upstream and also talked with upstream
about in May, however, frr (even 10.7~rc1) doesn't build yet with libyang 5.

As far as I'm aware the reason for the hold out is that upstreams CI
doesn't have libyang 5 yet.

Regards,
Daniel
