I started to work on 5.27.0 and just imported 5.27.1 with "gbp import-orig 
--uscan".
All of this is on salsa. Any help to go further is welcome (with push request
or even direct commit)

  https://salsa.debian.org/debian/yaz

I do not expect strong difficulties, it is just that I do not have
free time at this moment to work on it. I did not check yet, but I
expect a soname bump (4->5) with:
- new symbol file, so no problems
- binary package name to rename (libyaz4 -> libyaz5) [so coordination
  required to rebuild rdepends]
- transition to handle with (and probably a rename) for the devel pacakge:
  libyaz4-dev -> libyaz-dev (no need to allow parallel installation
  of different yaz version: yaz4 will be removed)

  Regards,
    Vincent
