Just wanted to see if anyone is working on it and where the blocker is. I understand the step up from 3.2.1 to 4.3.1 is huge, Gradle has been very active in the last years. Actually I guess that's also the reason why the last packaged version often can't be used any more. Maybe updating to 3.3, 3.4 or 3.5 first would be an easier step? My last take at Debian packaging is already 10 years old and rusty (I did the first Spring Framework packages). At the very least I can do testing.
