Hi,  
My auto merge is failing not sure why. Is it because of the version number? Can some one help me to identify. [Here is the auto merge pipeline](https://github.com/JuliaRegistries/General/pull/22738/checks?check_run_id=1235888261). Also can someone explain what does that mean in the guideline?

- `[compat]` entries should have upper bounds

You need `[compat]` entries for _all_ the dependencies, and they should not be unlimited. In practice a specific major (or minor, when needed) version should suffice.
