re: Use old proto version until maven issue is fixed

[dio]

Sorry, just curious about the following TODO:

j2cl/build_defs/repository.bzl

Line 6 in 55cf0ed

# TODO(b/211017789):Use old proto version until maven issue is fixed.

Is this related to the following error:

external/com_google_protobuf/java/util/BUILD.bazel:8:13: no such package '@maven//': The repository '@maven' could not be resolved: Repository '@maven' is not defined and referenced by '@com_google_protobuf//java/util:util'

when using "@com_google_protobuf//:protobuf_java_util" as one of the deps? Do you mind pointing out the upstream issue on this?

Thank you!

The issue is the new @maven dependency, which complicates the setup of the workspace. It might be possible that we may switch to new bzlmod instead of trying to handle this kind of problems.
