Hi Luke -
Running this code in the QGIS Python console:
*
vector_layer = iface.activeLayer() # Active layer _is_ from GeoPackage
field_name = 'Land Use Category' # "New_field" changed to "field_name"
new_field = QgsField(field_name, QVariant.String)
vector_layer.dataProvider().addAttributes([new_field])
*
will add an extra column with the name "*Land Use Category*" to the
GeoPackage layer
Med venlig hilsen / Best regards

I am using a geopackage as a data source and when I add a new field it
is limited to 10 characters. I thought that was only a limitation for
ESRI shapefiles.
New_field = “Land Use Category”
new_field = QgsField(field_name, QVariant.String)
vector_layer.dataProvider().addAttributes([new_field])
Field name is truncated to *Land_Use_C*
