You can always do it like e.g. the GNAT people do: build-depend on the previous version. That is, assuming the current scala (2.11?) can build a new enough sbt and scala to build the latest version, or somesuch. If there’s no such path, you’d need more intermediate versions and upload them, one after another. Into experimental would most likely be the best, with the understanding that these are intended for bootstrapping, not for use by users, although they could, in theory, do that. > So to build on CI system, is it allowed to preconfigure it manually with the > newest sbt version, i.e. version 1.x, from a tarball download?
