I am using a geopackage as a data source and when I add a new field it is limited to 10 characters. I thought that was only a limitation for ESRI shapefiles.

New_field = "Land Use Category"
new_field = QgsField(field_name, QVariant.String)
vector_layer.dataProvider().addAttributes([new_field])

Field name is truncated to Land_Use_C
