Reverse dependencies had 4 months to fix their bugs, so I'm going ahead with this one. Yes, well as noted: this is a major release with ABI and API breakage. It is unrealistic to expect the entire open source world to adopt this all at once. Digikam upstream, for example, is working on the transition, but it is not straightforward. Current recommendation is to continue to build against the version 4 API [1]. Consider reintroducing the ffmpeg 4 libraries alongside version 5.
