We started using platform as a Gradle built-in way to use versions from BOM files, without realizing the broader implications of it. The way our system is structured right now, it’s going to be a large effort to get to Gradle 6, and an even bigger one to not use Ivy for publishing. Is it possible to get the Module Metadata published in an Ivy repo? Or, would it be a moot point until we can also go to Gradle 6?
If we can’t use platform, what’s the suggested alternative? Go back to the Spring Boot dependency management plugin? Manually manage all of the dependency versions?
Unfortunately, the inconsistent results that we’ve seen are clearly environmental, and our build is such a beast that I can’t imagine how we’d identify and extract a small enough piece that we could hand it over for debugging. If we continue to hit this, I’ll see what I can do, though.
