I hope that there is still some time before gcc-14 removal.
Maybe porters will find a way to solve the issue before the removal.

Also in the HDFGroup side I see no reaction to our bug report [1].

This means that we will have python-rioxarray and sarsen removed from 
testing tomorrow in addition to satpy, xsar and xarray-safe-rcm that 
have been already removed and are unable to migrate.

Any option?
Do you have any direct contact with HDF4 upstream developer to try to 
understand if they have a plan for the near future about our issue?
