That's the scary bit of detail about Scala releases, so far - I find that an upgrade of the compiler is only possible if you've ready to build up everything.

In Java you can use an old dusty library from 15 years ago without a problem.
2.12 was a major release; even a semi-active developer would recompile. If a dependency did break, then sbt just helped you avoid using an unmaintained library.
