I'm not familiar with spotbugs, but this line appears to be be incorrect as:

  1. Those Maven coordinates aren't correct (before or after this change), the log4j slf4j 1.8 binding library caps out at version 2.18.0 as far as I can see
  2. I can't see this in the dependency tree at all, at least in the gradle build
    I can see in the past this version seems to be in lock-step with the log4j version though, so I've included it here.

Let me know if you'd rather references to this binding be removed, or if there's something I've missed with it's inclusion

<dependency prefix="spotbugs.saxon" artifact="net.sf.saxon:Saxon-HE:9.9.1-8" usage="${spotbugs.lib}"/>

<mkdir dir="${basedir}${spotbugs.lib}/config"/>
