ethers v5 to v6 migration

[SergioArrighi]

Hello team,

firstly thanks for the amazing job!
I have a dapp and I'd like to miigrate to ethers v6.
I noticed that this library depends on v5 and I was wondering if you have any plans to migrate.
The first and easiest problem I have been running into is the removal of BigNumer, replaced by the standard BigInt.
This poses a problem when trying to feed a PopulatedTransaction to ethers v6 Signer.

if (action.type === orderbook.ActionType.TRANSACTION) { const builtTx = await action.buildTransaction(); console.log(Submitting ${action.purpose} transaction); console.log(await signer.getAddress()); await signer.sendTransaction(builtTx); }

Do you have any suggested workaround maybe?

Thanks a lot and keep up the amazing job.

Regards
