Checking the bug mentioned, it was fixed in 2022.

So, I’m wondering how one would upgrade to scala 3, while keeping old version of libraries?

Keeping updated libraries is a good practice (even mandatory if you get audits like PCI-DSS).

That part puzzled me more than the rest.

I was considerably less impressed by the reporting when I finally found out the culprit.

Sure it was “Scala 3” … but not really.

It was an interaction of factors and I don’t think it would take away from the story to acknowledge that up front.
