Thank you. Guava is a troublesome library to upgrade, it's a core
library used by many projects, but upstream doesn't take binary
compatibility seriously and frequently removes classes/methods. This is
a recurrent source of regression on upgrades. So if the upgrade isn't
absolutely required it's preferable to stick to the current version.

That said, I've uploaded the version 23.6.1 to experimental, and the
version 29.0 should follow soon. So if it doesn't work with Guava 19 you
can try with the recent releases.
