Hi Daniel, I'm not building Groovy with Gradle 4+. I only wanted to generate the wrapper with Gradle 4.3.1, which was the version I had installed locally.
As you know, we can't ship the wrapper with our source distribution. And it means that someone with Gradle 4+ on his machine cannot build the source distribution out of the box. But as I said in my other email, at least for the wrapper task generation, it was really just related to the problem with the plugin version. Otherwise, we can indeed use Gradle 4.x to create the wrapper, and then use whichever version used by the wrapper properties, which is fine. But as is, we can't build from source, since we can't generate the wrapper. It's not a big showstopper, and I think we can proceed with the release, as otherwise, the convenience binaries or the custom-built (with the right build scan plugin version) is fine. Hope this clarifies my point. Sorry if this wasn't clear.
