------------------------------------------------------------------------

If maven checkstyle plugin updated checkstyle, the use could either
 * update his {{checkstyle.xml}} file
 * use a lower dependency of puppycrawl checkstyle.
 Here's a how to: 
[https://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-checkstyle-plugin/examples/upgrading-checkstyle.html]

Updating checker to a higher version in this plugin would mean to release a new 
major version of this plugin. Sadly, the checkstyle maintainers did not do 
that, although they have a breaking change. That should have been checkstyle 
9.x, not 8.24.
