I have an old/big project that is based on Laravel 4.2. In the wallet samples provided by Google, https://github.com/google-pay/wallet-samples/tree/main/php I can see that the version used in the composer is "google/apiclient": "^2.12". However, google/apiclient version 2.12 is incompatible with Laravel 4.2 because of the requirement of "phpseclib/phpseclib": "~2.0||^3.0.2" (Laravel 4.2 is only compatible with 0.3.*). I have therefore throught that I can simply use version https://github.com/googleapis/google-api-php-client/tree/v2.8.3 of the library which supports "phpseclib/phpseclib": "~0.3.10||~2.0".
Is it OK to use version 2.8.3 for integration? What are the risks associated with this decision?
Thanks
