Not gonna lie, it’s quite discouraging if bugs reported for the IR backend over a month ago are targeted to be fixed in
1.5.20
rather than the
1.5.0
release https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/KT-44891

Agreed, we are still blocked by this too in M2. I imagine this will prevent many android users from being able to use 1.5.0

this was the actual fix fwiw - https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/KT-42652

A bit funny that I just got an email titled "Kotlin 1.5.0-M2 Released – Ensure Smooth Migration to Kotlin 1.5.0"
If you migrate your projects now, you can save yourself time and energy in the future, when Kotlin 1.5.0 comes out, and you can help us provide urgent fixes before the release.
For example, if you try the new JVM IR backend, which is becoming the default in 1.5.0, and discover any issues now, we’ll try to deliver fixes before the release. You can report any issues you encounter to our issue tracker, YouTrack.
I also would be blocked from using 1.5.0 🤞 that we can bump up the priority.

Glad to see it was cherry picked to the 1.5.0 RC - thanks! 🙏
