Daniel Sun commented on GROOVY-9282:
------------------------------------
no ETA for Groovy 2.5.9 :(
But you can pull source code from git repository and build from src via
\{{gradlew installGroovy}}
> Account for package-private methods when overriding as protected

> When overriding a method as `protected` with a super method being
> package-private (no modifier in Java or `@PackageScope` in Groovy),
> compilation fails with an error similar to this:
> {code:java}
> ...
> exampleMethod(java.lang.Object -> java.lang.Object) in com.example.Child
> cannot override exampleMethod in com.example.Base; attempting to assign
> weaker access privileges; was package-private
> ...
> {code}
> This edge case seems to be missed at GROOVY-8651.
