This has been in noble-proposed since October of last year[1]. If we fix that now, this will trigger a mini transition because of the soname change of libghdl. It looks like the only reverse-dependency is yosys-plugin-ghdl, which would need rebuilding. Do we even know if it rebuilds correctly?

Here is what I would feel more comfortable with as next steps:
- prepare a PPA, enable noble-proposed, and rebuild yosys-plugin-ghdl, making sure it uses ghdl 3 and that libghdl-3-0-0 shows up in its Depends line
- get a release team ACK for this, could be on IRC. If they ask for a formal FFe, then be it. Had this been uploaded recently to noble-proposed, I wouldn't mind, but it's been sitting there for many months now.

I might be being too cautious: another patch pilot might have a different opinion, specially since these packages are in universe.
