Description Ernst CLA 2022-03-30 08:06:18 EDT 
org.eclipse.jdt.junit5.runtime has hard dependencies on specific versions of

org.junit.jupiter.*
org.junit.vintage.*
org.junit.platform.*

libraries. Some dependencies are outdated (~3 years).

The MANIFEST.MF file should be changed to open range version numbering:
5.4.0 ==> [5.4.0)
1.8.1 ==> [1.8.1)

This way new versions of Junit5 can be used in the project.

This bug hasn't had any activity in quite some time. Maybe the problem got resolved, was a duplicate of something else, or became less pressing for some reason - or maybe it's still relevant but just hasn't been looked at yet.

If you have further information on the current state of the bug, please add it. The information can be, for example, that the problem still occurs, that you still want the feature, that more information is needed, or that the bug is (for whatever reason) no longer relevant.
