Koin bom does not contain koin-core-jvm dependency

[PokimonZerg]

Describe the bug
io.insert-koim:koin-bom:4.0.1 does not contain koin-core-jvm dependency.
It is not good for maven users. They should specify koin-core-jvm version manually.
 
To Reproduce
Look inside the pom https://mvnrepository.com/artifact/io.insert-koin/koin-bom/4.0.1

Koin module and version:
io.insert-koim:koin-bom:4.0.1

Just to understand here, is it just "koin-core-jvm" to add or is it about Kotlin tooling?

[PokimonZerg]

I am investigating this issue. The problem is in the java-platform plugin and Kotlin Multiplatform plugin. Inside the Koin project, the java-platform plugin inserts the koin-core dependency into the resulting BOM. This is OK for Gradle. Gradle has a feature called variant aware dependency.

However, if you use the Koin BOM inside a Maven project, you will encounter an error. Maven does not have this feature, so you have to specify the version of koin-core-jvm manually. I think this is a minor issue, but I don't know how to fix it inside the Koin project.

For reference, the Ktor project also has a BOM. JetBrains uses some magic, so their BOM contains *-jvm dependencies.

Interesting, you are one of the rare maven users that tries such. Worth looking at JB Bom how they to help fix that 👍
If you have it under hand. Else I will check my self
