…lpha The opentelemetry-instrumentation-bom-alpha dependency was not being updated by Renovate despite newer versions being available (currently on 2.16.0-alpha, but 2.24.0-alpha is available). Root cause: Renovate was detecting the dependency but not creating PRs due to the default ignoreUnstable behavior in the recommended preset. Since this package only publishes alpha versions, we need to explicitly allow unstable version updates. Solution: Added a packageRule with ignoreUnstable: false for this specific package to ensure Renovate will create PRs for newer alpha versions.
