In Apache Airflow we have yandexcloud integration that currently holds us back from upgrading to protobuf 4. One of them is yandexcloud dependency.

Having limitation to Requires-Dist: protobuf (<3.21) prevents us from upgrading most of other providers - see apache/airflow#30067, Until yandex cloud fixes the dependency limitation, we will be forced to stop releasing the provider together with the others (it also means it will not be compatible with the other providers and newer versions of airflow when released

Can you please let us know if there are plans to upgrade the yandexcloud python sdk to not limit the protobuf? Otherwise we will have to exclude the yandexcloud provider and stop releasing it.

Thanks in advance!
