https://github.com/FFmpeg/FFmpeg/blob/master/doc/APIchanges has the 
changes. It might not be too involving itself if it were up-to-date with 
the most recent ffmpeg pre-5.0. It's possible that it did not follow 
earlier deprecations. In the best case it's mostly moving around 
includes and deleting obsolete functions.

I did check upstream and couldn't find a ported version either. But then 
was also kind of left confused given the myriad of tags and a new 
repository location as well as the separate repository for the older 
version.

Kind regards and thanks
