I would highly recommend to use the newer version of gpiod.

 From the pypi package[1]

"""
Versions 1.5.4 and prior are the deprecated, unofficial, pure-Python 
bindings.
"""

To give a bit more feedback, the same gpiod PyPi package comes from two 
different git repos. Before (and including) v1.5.4, it comes from 
https://github.com/hhk7734/python3-gpiod. Any version after that comes 
from https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/libs/libgpiod/libgpiod.git/.

The latter is maintained by one of the Linux kernel GPIO subsystem 
maintainer and the former has been abandoned as far as I remember.

c.f. https://github.com/hhk7734/python3-gpiod/issues/39 for more info on 
gpiod package in PyPi.

Cheers,
Quentin

its already available in meta-python and has a more recent version
2.1.3, is there anything needing it in such a way that
we need to move it to the core layer ?
