Dark-Matter | tiny autoscroller game for android and desktop | Android library

I am facing a problem with two existing gradle projects that worked fine a couple of months ago but that show now an annoying error in the buildSrc folder, where I use the org.gradle.api.JavaVersion constant.

The project compiles correctly and is imported to IntelliJ. I can also run it so I guess everything is working but of course I don't like to get an error thrown into my face ;)

Here are both example projects:

1. https://github.com/Quillraven/Quilly-s-Adventure
2. https://github.com/Quillraven/Dark-Matter

They are both a multi-project with a core, desktop and android project. In both projects I use a buildSrc folder to define the versions in a common place for the entire project.

For whatever reason, IntelliJ is now showing an error "unresolved reference JavaVersion" in the Dependencies.kt/versions.kt file.

The build.gradle.kts of the buildSrc folder looks like this:

I have a test stage from where I wish to install and run pytest on all Python files in the corresponding Azure DevOps repository

(https://dev.azure.com/TheNewThinkTank/_git/dark-matter-attractor).

The way Pytest is installed and run follows the official Microsoft documentation:

As the first step to my Azure DevOps pipeline I wish to validate my Python files by running pylint. This causes the pipeline to fail. My project is publicly available under this address:

https://dev.azure.com/gcr84/dark-matter-attractor

where all code is visible in the repo, and a pipeline run history is available. I would like to learn why the pylinting causes the pipeline to fail, and I have tried to add the command:

"|| pylint-exit $?"

(see https://pypi.org/project/pylint-exit/),

as well as

failOnStderr: false

(see https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/devops/pipelines/tasks/utility/bash?view=azure-devops).

Below is my bash command:
