I would expect then that packaging systems will hold off on this,
because I don't think we've reached the point that the collateral damage
of upgrading proj to 6 is ok.

With any luck I'm wrong and most of the proj-using packages have had a
release that works on 6, but it seems that there are a lot of packages
not yet able to cope.

(Which is all fine; packaging systems can stay on 2.4.x for a while.)
