The new upstream version assimp-5.0.0 comes with a soname bump from
libassimp.so.4 to libassimp.so.5.
consequently, the binary package has been renamed from libassimp4 to libassimp5.

The following packages are impactec:
- deal.ii
- doomsday
- gem
- kido
- mrpt
- qt3d-opensource-src
- ros-geometric-shapes, ros-rviz, ros-robot-model

I've done test-builds of all these rdepends and all of them succeeded except for
"deal.ii". Since "deal.ii" takes several hours to complete, i haven't found out
the reason yet, but AFAICT the FTBFS is not related to the libassimp transition.

Ben file:

title = "assimp";
is_affected = .depends ~ "libassimp4" | .depends ~ "libassimp5";
is_good = .depends ~ "libassimp5";
is_bad = .depends ~ "libassimp4";
