Possible Gradle Plugin Error due to JDK variant incompatibility with transitive deps

[solvingj]

I'm new to this project and ecosystem, so apologies in advance if it's my own environment that's causing this.

I cloned the project on my intel mac Sonoma with JDK 11, opened with latest version of Jetbrains Fleet and got the errors below.

Based on the error, I don't think my version of JDK matters, but just to try something, I installed JDK 17 then closed everything and tried again. Got the same errors.

If it's a real case where some "latest version of a transitive dependency" specifies a real incompatibility, consider adding "lockfiles" so the samples always work.

The consumer was configured to find a library for use during runtime, compatible with Java 11, packaged as a jar, and its dependencies declared externally, as well as attribute 'org.gradle.plugin.api-version' with value '8.4' but:
          - Variant 'apiElements' capability app.cash.sqldelight:gradle-plugin:2.0.1 declares a library, packaged as a jar, and its dependencies declared externally:
              - Incompatible because this component declares a component for use during compile-time, compatible with Java 17 and the consumer needed a component for use during runtime, compatible with Java 11
              - Other compatible attribute:
                  - Doesn't say anything about org.gradle.plugin.api-version (required '8.4')
          - Variant 'runtimeElements' capability app.cash.sqldelight:gradle-plugin:2.0.1 declares a library for use during runtime, packaged as a jar, and its dependencies declared externally:

Hello, @solvingj!
I got the same issue but solved it by using Java 17 which is required by the plugin.
