It may be caused by GitHub actions script

    - name: Update dictionary version in LT pom.xml
      working-directory: ${{ env.FR_DICT_HOME }}
      run: |
        poetry run python "dict_tools/scripts/update_pom.py" \
          --new-version "${{ env.FR_DICT_VERSION }}" \
          --package-name "french-pos-dict"

@jaumeortola Any idea what the issue might be?

[miurahr]

When prepare gradle project with configuration like

plugins {
  id 'java'
}

repositories {
  mavenCentral()
}

dependencies {
  implementation 'org.languagetool:language-fr:6.4'
}

and run gradle command like

./gradlew dependencies --scan

then I got command output

runtimeClasspath - Runtime classpath of source set 'main'.
\--- org.languagetool:language-fr:6.4
     +--- org.languagetool:french-pos-dict:0.6 FAILED

and gradle scan report

inconsistent module metadata found. Descriptor: org.languagetool:french-pos-dict:${env.FR_DICT_VERSION} Errors: bad version: expected='0.6' found='${env.FR_DICT_VERSION}'

It cause any downstream project which use gradle as build system got error from french module.

It was "0.5" in v0.5 release. It become ${env.FR_DICT_VERSION} in v0.6.

@miurahr obviously something's wrong when resolving the environment variables. I'll have a look and report back soon. I'll follow up on this in the Portuguese repo and propagate the solution to this one once I've got it.

[p-goulart]

The issue is fixed in the GHA workflow (as it is for Portuguese).

As discussed in languagetool-org/portuguese-pos-dict#44, this will affect future releases, but changing the version in the POM of already released artefacts will require extra juggling of Nexus permissions. I'll talk about it with @jaumeortola once he's back.

[miurahr]

Unfortunately, LanguageTool-v6.5 was released with french-pos-dict v0.6 which has not been fixed yet. It means downstream projects that use the Gradle build system need to stick to the old version.
