I'm the one who made the request. I do think it would be important to
update in order to support modern libmamba. I was hoping that the other
users of libyaml-cpp would chime in, but they have not yet done so.
FWIW - RHEL has been pushing soname updates in RHEL point releases for
things in CRB and possibly appstream. So now that EPEL aligns with RHEL
point releases I think it would be reasonable to relax the incompatible
update policy in EPEL.

This version change bumps the library soname from libyaml-cpp.so.0.7

If you feel this update is important, you can request an exception via
the Incompatible Upgrades policy.

I have a request[1] to update yaml-cpp to 0.8.0 in EPEL 10 and have verified the deps build in a copr[2].
If there are no objections I will commence building this coming weekend.
Thanks,
