My opinion: If the PR changes just the version in the pom.xml and does not need any updates in the Java code then it is safe to merge it. IMO it is good to keep all dependencies up-to-date if possible. The users can overwrite the version in their apps to an older version if needed. But if there is a need of changes in Java code then the bump contains API breaks and the users won't be able to downgrade the version in their apps. In this case I'd suggest to merge the PR only for the next major version of Avro. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
