magit fails to start after package-upgrade

Description :octocat:

since today after package upgrade, magit starts with an error that a version transient >= 0.5 is required

When I look for available package versions of transient via list-packages, two versions of transient are shown 0.5.3 (gnu) and 20231216.1908. Both point to the same commit 72cf67d7e047a4f82e0e18bd016c7826bf2efde0 apparently the package upgrade installed version 20231216.1908 After I followed the instructions to upgrade manually to version 0.5.3, magit starts without problem So I suspect this is a naming issue or an issue wrt to testing for the right version (name). Both should be identical, it is the same commit. I do not know if this is an issue of spacemacs or rather an issue for the package maintainer.

Reproduction guide :beetle:

Start Emacs have magit installed and upgrade to latest packages start magit by g s

Observed behaviour: :eyes: :broken_heart: Error is shown that suggests to upgrade to a newer version of transient

Expected behaviour: :heart: :smile: start magit
