[BUG]: Raspberry Pi Imager v1.9.6 does not show Bookworm OS when Raspberry Pi 5 is selected #1243

What happened?

With the latest Raspberry Pi Imager- version 1.9.6, when I select Raspberry Pi 5 board, I could only see the Trixie image options. I could not find Bookworm even inside, "Raspberry Pi OS (other)" menu.

Interestingly, it shows Bookworm if I select any board older than Raspberry Pi 5.
I dont think Raspberry Pi devs removed support for Bookworm on Pi 5,

Is this a bug in the imager app?
