1. OTP28 changed sslsocket structure 2. an old hack is no longer necessary
Test case two_nodes_different_otp_version was introduced in #14042. In CI, the code was compiled on OTP 27. The test case then applied the Ra commands on OTP 27 and OTP 26 at runtime. For that to work the test transferred the compiled BEAM modules to the OTP 26 node. Bumping OTP to 28 causes the lower version node (be it OTP 26 or OTP 27) to error when parsing the atom table chunk of the BEAM file that was compiled in OTP 28: ``` corrupt atom table {error,badfile} ``` That's expected as described in erlang/otp#8913 (comment) since erlang/otp#8913 changes the atom table chunk format in the BEAM files. ``` beam_lib:chunks("deps/rabbit/ebin/lqueue.beam", [atoms]). ``` will parse successfully if the file gets loaded on OTP 28 irrespective of whether the file was compiled with OTP 27 or 28. However, this file fails to load if it is compiled with 28 and loaded on 27. There is the `no_long_atoms` option that we could use just for this test case. However, given that we have a similar test case two_nodes_same_otp_version we skip test case two_nodes_different_otp_version in this commit. Really, the best solution would be to use different OTP versions in RabbitMQ mixed version testing in addition to using different RabbitMQ versions. This way, the test case could just RPC into the different RabbitMQ nodes and apply the Ra commands there.
Elixir 1.18 comes with a JSON package which leads to errors like this:
```
Duplicate modules: [["/home/runner/work/_temp/.setup-beam/elixir/bin/../lib/elixir/ebin/Elixir.JSON.Encoder.Float.beam",
"/home/runner/work/rabbitmq-server/rabbitmq-server/deps/json/ebin/Elixir.JSON.Encoder.Float.beam"],
```

This also means that we will have to produce Elixir 1.18 Debian packages sooner rather than later but that's OK. |
