Do you think we could keep the version in dependencyManagement/build.gradle.kts to keep only having one place where versions are set and updated ? I'm not familiar with gradle resolution details but is there any particular reason we have to do this in otel.java-conventions ?

it seems to be a bug in gradle dependency resolution - at least I didn't find a way to keep the version where it is now.

@laurit do you have an idea?

I'd replace enforcedPlatform with platform. I fail to see a reason why we should enforce this. cc @trask

this also doesn't help

configurations.configureEach {
      val b = isCanBeResolved && !isCanBeConsumed
      println("Configuring $name: add=$b")
      if (b || name.startsWith("test")) {
        extendsFrom(dependencyManagement)
      }
    }

thanks @laurit - that was the issue!
