Thanks for the fix. However, we need to understand since when this
problem started occurring so we can understand whether the fix needs to
be backported to our stable 2024.02.x branch.

Also, a 0.189 -> 0.192 bump brings quite a lot of other changes. Can we
have a more minimal fix to backport? (And then do the version bump).

When fixing build issues, we're not only concerned about fixing the
build issue, but also about understanding whether it needs to be fixed
in 2024.02.x, which requires providing more details in the commit log
*and* figuring out whether a more minimal solution than a bump is
possible (sometimes the answer is "no", or "yes, but very complicated",
and that's fine).

Thanks a lot,

Thomas
