> I think the point of view really is why are you stuck with those old Gradle versions, what prevents you to upgrade your build system? That should be a regular task every now and then. I don't disagree. I took the "upgrade your build system" to extremes moving from `ant` to `gradle 7.5.x` earlier this year for my main project; then had to back up to `6.8.x`. I personally would rather be at the bleeding edge. Sadly, it's not always that simple. I do not own the Gradle 5.3.1 project; I work with it, occasionally make PR's. It's a quiet project and the owners don't like change. The Gradle 6.8.x requirement is due to https://github.com/gradle/gradle/issues/15942; Gradle 7 removed some `JavaToolChainInternal` API (Gradle changing internal API stuff causing problems, sound familiar?) so I'm stuck until Gradle cleans up their compiler/toolchain API. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
