PROJ version mismatch in PostGIS version output?

Hi,

I recently upgraded my Ubuntu VM from 24.04 LTS to 26.04 LTS.

After re-enabling the PostgreSQL apt repository for the new 26.04 Ubuntu 
version and installing PostgreSQL from there, and re-running one of my 
Python tools, I noticed the PROJ version is listed as 9.8.1, but there 
is a second message I don't remember seeing before about "compiled 
against PROJ 9.7.1". Is this version mis-match of any concern, or 
inconsequential and can be ignored?
