Composer 2.8.8 fails to install due to core-dev requirements

Created on 28 April 2025, 13 days ago

Because justinrainbow/json-schema is currently added as a core-dev (11.6) dependency and pinned to the 5.x version, it causes updating composer from 2.8.6 to 2.8.8 to fail.

Composer -v wrongly reports composer version 2.8.8 (after composer self-update), using the "composer update composer/composer" command gives the message you're already using the latest version.

Running the command "composer outdated "still reports 2.8.6.
Version 2.8.6 is of course still mentioned in composer.json en -lock files.

I hope the next drupal/core-dev update allows to run justinrainbow/json-schema ^6.4 to resolve this issue.
