Gradle 6.6.1 and Kotlin 1.4 - runtime version conflict

Support
1

Hello. I asked the same question on StackOverflow. Does anybody know, how to sort it out?

I use the latest Gradle (v. 6.6.1) and the latest Kotlin (v. 1.4).

buildSrc project defines all Kotlin versions. And unfortunately it receives the error below.

The `kotlin-dsl` plugin applied to project ':buildSrc' enables experimental Kotlin compiler features. For more information see https://docs.gradle.org/6.6.1/userguide/kotlin_dsl.html#sec:kotlin-dsl_plugin
w: Runtime JAR files in the classpath should have the same version. These files were found in the classpath:
    /xxx/.gradle/wrapper/dists/gradle-6.6.1-all/43pddabvuyfjfvs8uyekonb98/gradle-6.6.1/lib/kotlin-stdlib-1.3.72.jar (version 1.3)

buildSrc project has the following build.gradle.kts file:

plugins {
    `kotlin-dsl`
}

dependencies {
    api(kotlin("gradle-plugin:1.4.0"))
}

As you can see in the warning above, there are the same libraries in the classpath, however with different versions:

  1. With version 1.3 from gradle.
  2. With version 1.4 from kotlin plugin.

How can this be fixed?

Please see https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/KT-41142 for workarounds and follow the issue for updates.

So based on what I understand there’s no official way to use Kotlin 1.4 in Gradle Plugins. All the workarounds point to downgrading or ignoring the warning, for which there’s no switch. Did I miss something?
