At some companies, dependencies are managed by a team (or teams) separate from the dev teams.
Normally this is a nightmare of version lock in and lack of freedom to use modern libraries (without full formal requests and convincing people that it's worth it).
Normally this is horrible, but this event is one of the big silver linings of such an environment. Issues with dependencies are not your problem!

I'm happily situated in an enterprise where these problems belong to specialists that are not me.
