Thanks but we don't need an issue for a dependency upgrade such as this. As explained in the issue template that was displayed when you opened this issue, we have some semi-automated tooling that will handle it.

Sorry, it was my mistake not reading the template all the way through...
Thanks for the fail-fast response!
