Research direction

Review open pull request #611 first, then inspect the Server dependency declaration and the Docker image setup mentioned in the issue. Confirm how the SDK is currently installed and how commit-based compatibility is represented. Done means the Server explicitly installs the SDK from the matching commit and the Docker image uses a compatible SDK version.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

server

Currently, the Server does not have the SDK listed explicitly as dependency, since we didn't know how to make it work, even though it very much depends on the SDK.

The problem is that we need to ensure that a compatible SDK version is installed.
We guarantuee compatibility at a commit basis, so we cannot install the last released sdk, when running the Docker image, for example.

This would mean that we need a way to make sure the Server always installs the SDK of the same commit.

Maybe something like this could work?
